<h2 id="bv54j">Active Offensive Trends</h2>
<ul>
<li>In the Avalanche’s last 9 games, the Over 1.5 1st period goals mark has hit</li>
<li>5 of the Oilers’ last 6 games have gone over the total goals line</li>
<li>8 of the Avalanche’s last 9 games have seen both teams score at least 2 goals in regulation</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="eg1r6">Goals, Goals, and More Goals</h2>
<p>Game 1 saw some familiar trends. The 8-6 final had a very similar feel for both teams. In Game 1 of the Oilers’ series against the Flames, they gave up 9 goals. For the Avalanche, they scored 7 goals in Game 1 of their series with the Nashville Predators.</p>
<p>There was virtually no defense in Game 1 of this series. Colorado had 47 shots on goal, while Edmonton put 37 on net. </p>
<p>Both starting goalies were pulled in Game 1, and it didn’t help to stop the barrage of red flashing lights. When 13 different players record goals, it’s hard to single out one player to target. Both teams had a complete offensive game, but the defenses will need to make some adjustments.</p>
<p>Heading into Game 2, the Avalanche have nothing to fix on offense. However if they can tighten up defensively and limit shots from the Oilers, they will be almost unstoppable in the series. The Oilers will need to adjust on defense as well. 47 shots on goal is not going to be survivable when playing a hot team like the Avalanche.</p>
<h2 id="46dk3">Oilers vs Avalanche Prediction and Best Bets</h2>
<p><strong>Oilers vs. Avalanche Prediction: </strong>Avalanche 5 Oilers 4</p>
<p><strong>Oilers vs. Avalanche Best Bets: </strong>Over 7.5 total goals (+110 at <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/nhl">BetOnline</a>)</p>
<p>The defense is not strong enough for either team as it stands. The goalies have been rattled in the series, and star players haven’t even gotten hot yet. </p>
<p>This series is made for goals. Two of the best offenses are going at it, and after Game 1, it shows. 7.5 is the largest Over/Under in the Stanley Cup Playoffs so far. However, the Over/Under in Game 1 was 7, and the teams doubled that total.</p>
