Result:
LOSS

It's Vancouver's turn to bounce back from a loss as the teams have alternated wins and losses the first four games. Evan Bouchard scored the game-winning goal with 38.1 seconds left and Edmonton eked out a 3-2 win on Tuesday to tie the series at two games apiece. Vancouver goalie Arturs Silovs continued his fine work despite the loss with 27 saves. The Oilers had gone OVER their four previous games and they are 6-0-1 OVER as favorites of -110 to -150. The Canucks are 5-1 OVER their past six playoff games as underdogs of +110 to +150 and they have won five of six in that situation. Edmonton is 5-1 OVER following a win. Silovs has been a savior for Vancouver after Thatcher Demko went out with an injury, as he is 4-3 with a 2.71 goals-against average in seven postseason starts. Take the Canucks and the OVER.

Result:
WIN
2 units on Game Total OVER 6.5 -103 (risk 2 to return 3.94)
Result:
LOSS

Edmonton outshot the Canucks 41-18 and still managed to lose Game 3 to go down 2-1 in the series. The Oilers have won five of six as home favorites of -151 to -200 and they have won 30 of 45 home games this season. Edmonton is 7-1 OVER its past eight games, including all three games of this series and they have gone OVER five in a row at home. The Oilers have plenty of scorers to break through after missing out on numerous opportunities in Game 3. Connor McDavid was held without a point for the first time in the playoffs. Mattias Ekholm and Leon Draisaitl each scored a power-play goal, but the Oilers need more production when it's five-on-five. Look for that to happen tonight as Edmonton plays in a more desperate mode. Take the Oilers to win, and bet the OVER as a Max Play.

The first two games have gone OVER and the teams are 4-1-1 OVER the past six meetings. Edmonton is 8-2 OVER its past 10 games and 5-1 OVER playing with one day of rest.

Vancouver took three one-goal leads, but Edmonton answered each time and it had a 31-19 edge in shots. In the six meetings this season the teams have averaged 7.33 goals per game. The Oilers have a plethora of weapons offensively starting with Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, who each had a goal and three assists on Friday night. Take the OVER as a Max Play.

Result:
WIN

Edmonton let one get away as it blew a 4-1 lead and lost 5-4 in Game 1. Conor Garland scored the go-ahead goal with 5:34 left for Vancouver and the game sailed OVER the total. The Oilers will look to bounce back from the devastating loss and they are still favored on the road in Game 2. The Canucks have lost four of five playing with one day of rest. Edmonton is 5-1 OVER its past six games and it is 5-0-1 OVER as a favorite of -120 to -150. Edmonton goalie Stuart Skinner needs to redeem himself after allowing the five goals on Wednesday and he still is 4-2 in the playoffs although his goals-against average rose to 3.01. The Canucks continue to get by with backup goaltenders with Thatcher Demko out indefinitely with a knee injury. Take the Oilers and the OVER as a Max Play.
