Same-Game Parlay Leg 1: OVER 6.0 Goals

Three of four games between these two Pacific Division rivals went OVER six goals this year. Go back to 2022, and the total has gone OVER six goals five times in seven games (71%).

Now, with Silovs likely getting the start tonight I firmly believe that Edmonton is going to throw pucks on net indiscriminately. It's going to be a shooting gallery out there for them. And when Vancouver faces 30 or more shots this year the total is 18-11 (62%).

I'm going to start with the total going OVER six goals!

Same-Game Parlay Leg 2: OVER 1.5 Goals P1

I'm doubling down on the OVER by saying we see more than 1.5 goals in the first 20 minutes. Five of the Canucks last eight regular season games saw the first period OVER hit. For Edmonton, it was four of their last eight regular-season games, but add their series against the Kings and the P1 total has gone OVER 1.5 goals eight times in their last 13 (62%)

Now consider their stats on the season, Edmonton has seen the first period OVER 58% while Vancouver has seen it 61%.

In meetings since 2022, the first period OVER is 6-1 (86%). This is a safe bet.

Same-Game Parlay Leg 3: Kane O2.5 SOG

I mentioned Kane's shot prop in my expert pick today as an aside. So let's go and add it to the parlay. I've already made the case for Edmonton to put a ton of rubber on net. They've got the fourth-highest shot-per-game count in the playoffs at 31. And that was against a Kings team that allowed the fourth-fewest shots on goal in the regular season.

Against the Canucks this year, Edmonton has put up 27-40-43-33 shots on net in the four games played.

Kane leads the Oilers for shots on goal (per 60) in these playoffs with 14.51 and is third for total shots at 19 in five games. In his career, Kane has 90 shots in 25 games against the Canucks, or 3.6 per game.

With a ton of pucks on net, Kane's shoot-first mentality in these playoffs and his career numbers against Vancouver I like the OVER for his shot-prop.
