Los Angeles is Top 10 in the NHL offensively in goals scored, while the defense is 16th in goals allowed. They stole Game 1 at Edmonton, 4-3 in overtime, as a +170 dog putting pressure on the Oilers for this one. The Kings are 29-19 after allowing 3 goals or more in back-to-back games, 75-54 against teams that allow 29.5+ shots on goal per contest, plus 19-8 when playing just their second game in five nights. Edmonton blew a 3-1 third-period lead at home in Game 1 and is 4-8 off a home loss by one goal. The visitors match up well and are more than capable of winning again. Play Los Angeles.
