Despite getting trounced on Monday, the Oilers are currently sitting as a -180 favorite to win Game 4 versus the Golden Knights.
Their backs aren’t firmly against the wall just yet, but the Edmonton Oilers can feel something looming over their shoulders.
Down 2-1 in their best-of-7 series against the Vegas Golden Knights, the Oilers desperately need a win on Wednesday night to buy themselves some breathing room in this contest.There’s also heaps of expectations on this team after they bulldozed their way down the stretch and into the playoffs.Despite getting trounced on Monday, the Oilers are currently sitting as a -180 favorite to win Game 4.
While the Oilers’ vaunted power play is making its mark, the Knights have outscored Edmonton, 9-4, at 5-on-5 and has a slight advantage in terms of expected goals created . The key to beating the Oilers is to survive the power play and do everything you can to contain McDavid and Draisaitl.So far, Vegas is getting the job done and the Knights are also winning the goaltending battle.
There is a new wrinkle to that last point, though, as Adin Hill had to sub in for Laurent Brossoit in the middle of Game 3 after Brossoit went down injured.Brossoit has delivered for Vegas in its first eight games of the postseason, but it’s not like he’s an elite goalie, so going from Brossoit to Hill shouldn’t be a huge difference.
