Colorado Avalanche vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction
It’s hard to turn down the Avalanche at a cheap price given their outrageous body of work. The best team in the league heading into the playoffs. The Oilers have also run hot and cold all season and are coming off a poor week. However, the Avs have nothing to play for with the presidents trophy locked up. The Oilers are coming for a Pacifc division title and a more favorable first-round matchup. The Oilers beat the Avs a month ago on the road, cashing a nice underdog ticket. You’re giving me plus money with the team at home that have stakes on the line. Give me the Oilers.
