NHL Betting Prediction: Dallas Stars vs. Edmonton Oilers Game 6 6/2/2024

Dallas Stars (52-21-9) vs. Edmonton Oilers (49-27-6)

As the NHL Western Conference Finals heat up, the Dallas Stars and Edmonton Oilers are set to clash in a pivotal Game 6 at Rogers Place on June 2, 2024. With the series tied 2-2, each team is vying for a crucial victory to gain an edge. This match-up is particularly intriguing for enthusiasts and bettors alike, especially those using the top live betting website to place real-time wagers as the action unfolds.

The Dallas Stars stand high in regular season performance but seem to have struck poor performance in recent matches going 0-5 in the last five games. Key offensive performers such as Jason Robertson, and Joe Pavelski must come up with big performances. With 80 points this season, Robertson pinpoints the best way to breach the Oilers’ defense; less fearsome on the road with a two-six against the spread. Pavelski with 67 points plays the same vital role. The Stars power play headed by Pavelski who has scored 11 goals could be critical against the Oilers’ penalty kill.

On the flip side, the Edmonton Oilers have the stiff forward lineup that comprises Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. McDavid collected as many as 132 points for this season playing for the team, while Draisaitl got 106, making them strong threats to any defense. They especially need to score on power plays, a prime area against a Stars defense that has been rather porous of late. The Oilers are a very active team at home, and the totals have gone over in 6 of the last 8, so it may be time for them to take advantage of a shaky Stars defense.

Goaltender Jake Oettinger vs. Goaltender Stuart Skinner

Stars Jake Oettinger’s year has been mediocre – .905 save percentage that covers 54 matches. His fighting spirit will be kept intact when faced against the Oilers’ potent offense line. The Stars will also depend a lot on the goalkeeper’s ability to handle pressure mainly in the shoot-outs, where the performance is more critical.

On the other side, Stuart Skinner has mirrored Oettinger’s statistics but has depicted weakness in shootouts with a lower save percentage of .556. His task will be to keep the Stars’ potent forwards in check and control the flow of the game; it would be crucial to protect his goal during power-play situations and the pressure moments.

 

NHL Odds/Point Spread: TBD, Total Odds: TBD

The betting odds for this game are yet to be determined, but given the recent performance and the critical nature of a Game 6, the lines are expected to be tight. Bettors should keep an eye on the moneyline and puckline as they develop, along with the total, which could sway based on both teams’ offensive trends.

 

Dallas Stars Betting Trends

The Stars have been struggling, losing their last five games and failing to cover the spread in those games. However, they have a better record on the road against the spread, standing at 5-3, which might offer some hope to bettors leaning towards Dallas, especially with the potential for an upset.

 

Edmonton Oilers Betting Trends

The Oilers have shown stronger form lately, going 4-1 in their last five games. Despite a weaker road record against the spread, their home performance has been solid, which could be an indicator of their potential to clinch this crucial home game.

 

Dallas Stars vs. Edmonton Oilers 6/2/24 Betting Picks

Considering the current form and historical performance, the Oilers seem to have a slight edge, particularly with their offensive firepower and home advantage. The Stars will need to capitalize on any defensive lapses by the Oilers and will rely heavily on their goaltending to keep the game within reach.

In terms of betting, the safer bet might be on the Oilers, especially considering the over trend in their recent home games. Bettors should also look at prop bets involving McDavid and Draisaitl, who are likely to be instrumental in the Oilers’ offense.

The Oilers are poised to take advantage of their offensive strength and home crowd support, potentially overcoming the Stars in a closely contested game. Bettors should consider the over on total goals and keep an eye on dynamic in-play odds at the daily NHL Finals picks for potential value bets.
