💰 Devils vs. Oilers best bet: Oilers -1.5 (+145) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Check out all of our NHL analysis and expert predictions this season.

The Oilers have been an absolute wagon, in large part because of their rock-solid play in their own end. Edmonton has only allowed five goals total across its last five games.

And the Oilers have more than weathered the storm of Leon Draisaitl's absence: Edmonton has won both games without the star German by a combined score of 11-0.

I'm backing Edmonton to cover tonight against a Devils team that's one of the league's worst against the spread this season.

Score prediction: Oilers 4, Devils 2

🔥 Best Devils vs. Oilers prop bet: Connor McDavid Over 1.5 assists (+176) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

After one of the better goal-scoring stretches of his career, Connor McDavid has settled nicely back into his natural role as the sport's No. 1 facilitator.

The Oilers captain has totaled two assists in three of his last four games, and he did so the last time out against New Jersey earlier this season.

If McDavid tallies multiple helpers tonight, there's a good chance that Zach Hyman is a beneficiary. Our Gary Pearson targets a Hyman anytime goal as his best NHL player prop for Tuesday.
