NHL odds: Oilers-Sharks prediction, odds, pick, and more
The Oilers have won 17 of 28 games since the All-Star break. Connor McDavid has 105 points this season. Leon Draisaitl has 101 points and is leading his team with 50 goals. The Sharks have given up 14 goals in their last three games and 20 in the last five. Edmonton is 5-1 in its last six games as the road favorite. It has won the two meetings with the Sharks so far this year.
The Sharks are coming off a 5-4 home loss to the Dallas Stars last Saturday and a 4-2 loss on the road to Colorado Avalanche two days earlier. They are 0-5 in their last five games after two full days of rest.
The Sharks are looking to counter the Oilers' second-ranked power play. San Jose has won four of their past five games against an opponent that had just scored at least five goals. Timo Meier and Tomas Hertl have combined for seven goals and nine assists over the last five Sharks games. Mario Ferraro and Jonathan Dalen are back on the ice for San Francisco.
The Oilers are looking to strengthen their grip on a top-three spot in their division. The Sharks can be dangerous but their goalkeeping is unreliable.
