(55) Edmonton Oilers at (56) Vegas Golden Knights
9:30pm EDT - May 6/2025

THE PLAY: Total Under 6.5 (-125)

We're unlikely to see too many more totals that are this high. While recent h2h meetings at Edmonton have been higher-scoring, the Oilers' last three visits to Vegas resulted in scores of 3-2, 1-0 and 3-1. That's an average of just 3.33 goals per game. The Knights closed out round 1 with consecutive 3-2 victories. The Oilers had a higher-scoring series with the Kings but their last road game finished with a 3-1 score. I think the number is generous and that Game 1 will end up lower-scoring than some may be expecting. *good at 6 or better
