Blues vs Oilers prediction<\/p>\n
Blues vs Oilers best bet: Connor McDavid anytime goalscorer (+100 at BET99)<\/p>\n
Connor McDavid\u2019s game has gone up a couple of levels since Zach Hyman<\/a> returned to the lineup and joined him on the top line. The superstar has averaged 0.8 goals through 28 games with Hyman on his line compared to 0.4 goals over 21 games without him.<\/p>\n That\u2019s not a coincidence. McDavid has produced drastically more shot volume with Hyman by his side, generating 1.3 more shots on target and nearly two more attempts each night.<\/p>\n He should have plenty of opportunities again vs. the St. Louis Blues<\/a>. They have really struggled defensively of late, sitting 22nd in expected goals against, 29th in shots allowed, and dead last in shot share over the past 10 games.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n This is a spot where McDavid & Co. will be able to spend a lot of time on the front foot and with possession of the puck.<\/p>\n It\u2019s also worth noting the Blues have given up power-play goals at the sixth-highest rate this season. McDavid ranks eighth in power plays and first in points. He\u2019s as likely as anybody to take advantage, especially taking on more of a shooting role in the absence of Leon Draisaitl.<\/p>\n Blues vs Oilers same-game parlay Bet99<\/p>\n Connor McDavid anytime goalscorer<\/p>\n Zach Hyman Over 0.5 assists<\/p>\n Jack Roslovic Over 1.5 shots<\/p>\n +475 at BET99<\/a><\/p>\n Hyman is attached to the hip of McDavid at even-strength and on the power play. He does a lot of the dirty work, recovering pucks and getting them back on McDavid\u2019s stick, so he\u2019s a prime candidate to pick up a helper if McDavid scores.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n We\u2019re rounding out the SGP with Jack Roslovic shots. He has registered multiple in 12 of 14 home games this season and is taking on a larger role without Draisaitl. He played nearly 17 minutes and had five shot attempts last night.<\/p>\n Blues vs Oilers odds<\/p>\n Moneyline: Blues +145 | Oilers -170<\/p>\n Puck Line: Blues +1.5 (-170) | Oilers -1.5 (+145)<\/p>\n Over\/Under: Over 6 | Under 6<\/p>\n Blues vs Oilers trend<\/p>\n Connor McDavid has scored in four of his last eight games against the Blues.
