How to Watch: US TV: Scripps Vegas; ESPN+. Canada TV: CBC; Sportsnet.
Time: 10 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)
Our last game of NHL predictions has the Vegas Golden Knights looking to avoid the season sweep against the Edmonton Oilers. Adin Hill is the projected starter for the Golden Knights, who are 4-4-2 in their last 10 games. New head coach John Tortorella has won his first two games in charge. However, taking on the Oilers is a different animal. Pavel Dorofeyev leads the team in goals with 35.
Connor Ingram is the expected starter for the Oilers, who are 7-2-1 in their last 10 games. Edmonton has put together a five-game winning streak despite not having Leon Draisaitl in the lineup. Connor McDavid continues to make his case for the Hart Trophy with 126 points so far this campaign.
The Golden Knights are getting that new coach bump. However, the Oilers have dominated this matchup in recent seasons.
Prediction: Oilers win 4-2.
