Red Wings vs Oilers Picks & Props

McDavid paced the NHL in points per 60 minutes at home over the past three years, and he’s recorded multiple points in eight of 13 games at Rogers Place this season. The Red Wings are also likely to turn to Cam Talbot in nets tonight, and he’s allowed three goals or more in three of his past four starts while posting a miserable .840 SV% and 3.94 GAA with -4.01 goals saved above expected. This is also a back-to-back road spot for Detroit, and the Wings will be playing for the third time in four nights on the highway.

This is a tough schedule spot for Detroit, and Edmonton is turning the corner with an eighth-ranked 54.8 expected goals percentage at five-on-five and top-ranked 36.8 power-play percentage during an active 4-2-1 stretch. The Oilers are also 7-3-3 at Rogers Arena, and the Red Wings are likely turning to a struggling Cam Talbot between the pipes tonight. Talbot has allowed four goals or more in three of his past four starts while posting an abysmal .840 save percentage and 3.94 GAA with -4.01 goals saved above expected.
