- St. Louis Blues +1.5 +210 Over 6.5
- Edmonton Oilers -1.5 -265 Under 6.5
Recommended Pick: St. Louis Blues +1.5
For a moneyline bet, I’m backing the Blues to secure a victory over the Oilers on the road. With the moneyline currently set at +210, I’m locking in my bet on the Blues straight-up.
Our projections have the Blues pulling out a win as the underdog. But if you’re not as bullish as we are on the Blues, we’d recommend at least getting a bet down on them to cover the puck line.
With an over/under line sitting at 6.5 goals, we like this game to surpass that mark and recommend getting a bet down on the over.
