Edmonton Oilers vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction
The Oilers are the better team and are starting to heat up. After two straight trips to the final, the Oilers know how to win this time of year. They deserve line respect. However, the Kings are having a strong week and have put themselves in the thick of the playoff race. The Kings have earned points in 8 of their last 9 games. While the Oilers are fighting for a division title, playoffs are a certainty. We can’t say the same for the Kings. I expect a feisty effort from the home team. I’ll take a shot with the Kings on Saturday afternoon.
