NHL Odds: Oilers-Hurricanes prediction, odds and pick

Edmonton Oilers and Carolina Hurricanes are playing a Stanley Cup rematch on Thursday night. The Oilers defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 3-2 on Tuesday. Carolina lost 3 -0 to the Florida Panthers on Wednesday. Last season, the teams split the series 2-1. The Hurricanes have a better record on the road than at home. They are 4-0 on road and 3.2 at their home rink.

The Oilers are without Evander Kane, who had an emergency surgery on his wrist. Jack Campbell is likely to start in goal for the Oilers. McDavid and Draisaitl are the best players in the world. Zach Hyman has six goals and 10 assists. Nugent-Hopkins has seven goals, Nugen has nine assists and Tyson Barrie has eight assists for Edmonton.

The Hurricanes are the team with the quiet stars that keep on producing while no one is looking. Martin Necas has seven goals and 10 assists, Sebastian Aho has tallied seven, Andrei Svechnikov has eight goals, and Brent Burns has two goals. Frederic Andersen may not start for the Hurricanes, so Pyotr Kochetkov will probably start.

The Oilers are the better pick to go into Charlotte and steal the game. The Hurricanes lost to the Oilers last night.

Oilers-Hurricanes is a final game of the NHL season.
