Expert NHL moneyline picks: Nov. 9

Rangers vs. Oilers pick: Oilers Oilers

Novig probability: 60%

Offense wins out in this clash between one of hockey's best defenses and an Edmonton top six that simply can't be stopped. The Oilers handled the Rangers in a 4-1 win just over a week ago, and with their power play clicking at an absurd 34%, Edmonton has the firepower and elite talent to get the job done once again.

The Rangers have been dreadful on the road, carrying a 2-5-1 away record into Rogers Place.

Flyers vs. Canucks pick: Flyers Flyers

Novig probability: 56%

In a battle between two teams with a combined seven wins and eight straight losses, I'm fading the one surrendering the most goals per game in hockey. The Canucks are coughing up an NHL-worst 4.6 goals per contest, and if there's one redeeming quality between these two bottom-feeders, it's the Flyers' top-10 penalty kill.

I'll give another bump to the Flyers because of Joseph Woll, who's 3.6 goals saved above expected sits inside the top 10 for goalies who have started at least nine games. Bring us home, Philly.

Islanders vs. Sharks pick: Islanders Islanders

Novig probability: 57%

I operate under one simple rule of thumb: when the Sharks are on the schedule, fade them. San Jose has dropped five straight games, Yaroslav Askarov is being hung out to dry behind a defense allowing the fifth-most high-danger shots in hockey, and the offense isn't doing much to help, averaging just 2.47 goals per game.

Goals will be few and far between against the defensive-minded Islanders, who might be getting some reinforcements.

Today's NHL moneyline combo

Oilers moneyline

Flyers moneyline

Islanders moneyline

There are three matchups to exploit tonight. Edmonton's explosive offense and power play should cause problems for the Rangers, while Philadelphia faces a Vancouver defense that's been surrendering goals at an alarming rate. The Islanders, meanwhile, have the defensive structure to frustrate a Sharks offense that's struggled to generate consistent scoring.  At 4.95x, we're taking this combo and running.
