Leon Draisaitl will have his shot working as Edmonton takes one from Minnesota in our Oilers vs. Wild predictions.
Both the Oilers and Wild are playing exceptionally well in their respective defensive ends, but Edmonton is a team on the rise after an uneven start to the season. Now playing closer to their potential, we like the Oilers on the moneyline tonight.
There’s still a splash of statistical correction coming at 5-on-5 for Edmonton, too. The Oilers sport 27th-ranked 98.2 PDO, and even their 21st-ranked 99.3 number during the 14-game heater is well below the breakeven mark.are on the other side of the 5-on-5 PDO spectrum with a league-high 103.6 mark that’s fueled by a spectacular .942 team save percentage.
The Draisaitl Over 2.5 shots is a nice addition because while the Wild don’t allow many goals, they also haven’t limited shots. Minny ranks 18th with a 49.7 CF% at 5-on-5 and allows 28.4 shots per game. Neil Parker is, first and foremost, a sports fan.
