Game 1 between the Anaheim Ducks and Edmonton Oilers did not disappoint.
Anaheim came back from a 2-0 deficit to take a 3-2 lead late in the second period, and then Edmonton scored two unanswered goals, including the game-winner in the final minutes, to get the 4-3 win.
This should be another fast-paced game in Edmonton tonight.
Here are the odds, starting goalies, how to watch, and predictions for Ducks vs. Oilers in Game 2 on Wednesday, April 22.

Ducks Best NHL Prop Bet
Leo Carlsson OVER 3.5 Shots on Goal (+135)
Leo Carlsson came ready for his first playoff game, firing 14 pucks toward the net, 10 of which were shots on goal. The Ducks center ended up with a goal and an assist in the loss, and he’s been shooting the puck a ton as of late.
Carlsson ended the regular season with 38 shots on goal (55 total attempts) in his final 9 games. He went OVER 3.5 SOG in 6 of those 9 games, with 5+ SOG in 3 of them.
I can’t see a reason Carlsson won’t keep firing the puck in Game 2, and would take a ladder as high as you feel comfortable.
Ducks vs. Oilers Prediction and Pick
The Oilers needed a furious comeback to avoid overtime and win the game, yet they’re even bigger favorites at -198 than they closed in Game 1 (-178).
I’m tempted to take the Ducks outright at +164, and may split some of my bet on that, but getting Anaheim +1.5 at -148 seems too good to be true.
The Ducks are capable of keeping up with the Oilers offensively, and I’d rather take the +1.5 than lay six fewer cents on the OVER 6.5.
Pick: Ducks +1.5 (-148)
