Connor McDavid has been firing the puck with authority lately, and it's led to a lot of goals, capped by off a last-out hat trick vs. the Sharks. I expect that trend to continue today against the Los Angeles Kings.
Find out more with my Oilers vs. Kings predictions and NHL picks for Saturday, April 11.
Oilers vs Kings prediction
Oilers vs Kings best bet: Connor McDavid anytime goal (+100)
Connor McDavid has seen a sudden surge in his shot volume recently, averaging 5.66 shots on goal per game over his last six outings.
Those shots have led to six goals for the Edmonton Oilers captain in that span, including his Wednesday night hat trick vs. the Sharks.
McDavid now has at least one goal in seven of his last nine games, and with Leon Draisaitl still out during the Oilers late-season playoff push, the burden to produce is still squarely on McDavid’s shoulders.

Oilers vs Kings same-game parlay
I’ll continue to bet on one of the most automatic bets on the board for the Oilers — Over 0.5 assists for Evan Bouchard. The Oilers blueliner has piled up a staggering 70 assists this season, and has hit this prop in 17 of his last 22 games.
Lastly, Vasily Podkolzin has been a steady point producer down the stretch for Edmonton. Due to a rash of injuries, he’s been elevated to the top line alongside McDavid and is getting some PP1 time as well.
This has allowed him to record 1+ point in five of his last seven outings.
