The Oilers are a team that has been bouncing around on the season, but the Oilers are also a team that has been playing below the amount of talent they have on the season. The Oilers are looking like they could bounce back on the year and really start to find some of the potential they would like to have on the season.

The Oilers this year have been able to score at a clip of 2.79 goals a game on the year. The Oilers have been able to keep the opponent to 3.24 goals a game. The power play conversion on the Oilers is sitting at 21% on the year, but have killed off 75.1% of the power plays they have faced.
Vegas is coming into this game here with a great standing here as they are sitting in the 3rd place spot on the standings and are ahead of the Coyotes by 6 points. However, the Golden Knights are a team that has had a lot of struggles on the season early on and now they are coming together. The downside is when the Golden Knights do play against some of the stronger teams in the division they are still losing the games.

With the Golden Knights the team has been able to score 2.97 goals a game on the season. The defense has given up 2.75 goals a game on the year so far. The power play is converting at a clip of 17.1% on the year and have managed to kill off 82.3% of the power plays the team has faced.

The Golden Knights were able to beat the Stars in a close 2-1 game in the last game and that allowed the Golden Knights to prove they do have quite a bit of offensive prowess, but also a defense that is able to bring home the wins rather easily. Look for the Golden Knights to be able to contain the Oilers in this game and win as well. Final Score Prediction, Vegas Golden Knights win 3-1.
