Prediction

This series has been fun from the very first puck drop in game 1 and tonight should be more of the same.

Game 4 was a slugfest, which was decided in Overtime as the Oilers bagged the last goal to win 5-4 and level out the series 2-2.

And lastly, @ZachHyman scored the OT winner as the @EdmontonOilers evened up the series 2-2. 🙌 pic.twitter.com/7AmAqL4Don

The series swings back to Edmonton for a crucial Game 5 and I am looking at the Oilers here to build off of the momentum from that big Game 4 win and have it carry over into game 5.

Connor McDavid and company will have plenty of chances to get the job done tonight and I like them to do so in style. I like the Puck Line for the plus money value but I will take the safer bet and ride with the Oilers in regulation.

Player Prop of the Game

Adrian Kempe o3.5 SOGs (-114) FanDuel

I have loved betting on Kempe all series and that continues tonight. Kempe has 4+ SOGs in 5 of his last 7 games versus the Oilers and loves playing at Roger's Place.

He has 4+ in 8 of his last 10 in Edmonton and with it all to play for tonight, the talented King will surely be ripping the puck once again tonight.

5+ is nice value as well. He has 5+ in 2 of 4 to start the series and I don't see that slowing down tonight.

Bonus: Kempe 5+ (+175) FanDuel
