The Edmonton Oilers put up eight goals in their first game back from the Olympic break, and will look to keep rolling when they visit the San Jose Sharks this afternoon.
The NHL’s leading scorer, Connor McDavid, tallied two points last time out. I’m banking on Edmonton’s captain to rack up another multi-point effort in my Oilers vs. Sharks predictions and NHL picks for Saturday, February 28.
