Coyotes at Oilers picks and predictions
Prediction
Oilers 6, Coyotes 3
Moneyline
PASS.
Edmonton (-475) should be able to beat Arizona for the 5th straight time, but there is no need to risk more than 4 times your potential profit on the moneyline when the Oilers should win by multiple goals. Bet the puck line and/or the total instead.
Puck line/Against the spread
BET OILERS -1.5 (-180).
In both of Ingram’s career starts vs. Edmonton, his team has lost by at least 3 goals. Three of the Oilers’ last 4 wins have been by multiple goals and Arizona may be coming back down to Earth after an impressive 4-game win streak. Look for Edmonton to come out more focused Wednesday after barely beating San Jose as a -312 favorite.
Over/Under
BET OVER 6.5 (-170).
The Over is 8-2 in Edmonton’s last 10 games after a win and 3-1-1 in its last 5 at home. These teams tend to play high-scoring games vs. each other, with the Over hitting in 5 of the last 7 meetings, and the Oilers’ No. 1-ranked offense should continue to have success against Ingram.
