Betway Bets of the Day: Bet on the Edmonton Oilers’ power play in game six vs. Dallas

The Edmonton Oilers will look to be the first Canadian team to make it to the Stanley Cup Final since the Vancouver Canucks in 2011. Yes, I know Montreal made it to the final in 2021, but that was a weird bubble season that had two Eastern Conference teams play for the ultimate prize, so it doesn’t really count in my books.
Edmonton shocked the Stars in game five, taking a 3-0 lead early in the second period in their barn and never looked back. Stuart Skinner was exceptional down the stretch for the Oilers, making massive saves and never letting the Stars get back into the game.
Today’s expected goaltender matchups for our highlighted game:
The Dallas Stars’ Jake Oettinger (35-14-2) vs. The Edmonton Oilers’ Stuart Skinner (36-15-2).
Zach Hyman to register over 3.5 shots at -140. My $12.50 bet would return $21.42.
Hyman has been on a shooting spree of late, hitting his over 3.5 in six of his last seven games dating back to even the Canucks series. In his last three games, Hyman has registered 17 shots, which is an average of 5.66 shots per game.
Take this play at a full unit.
Connor McDavid to score a power play point at +100. My $10 bet would return $20.
Edmonton’s power-play looked to finally start clicking on Friday night, this is a huge problem for the Stars as if they take multiple penalties in game six, they’re going to be toast. Edmonton’s power-play runs through McDavid’s motions if they get one on the man advantage tonight he’s getting a touch.
Take this play at .8 units.
Tyler Seguin to register over 2.5 shots at -135. My $12.50 bet would return $21.75.
Yes, we’re running this one back. He hit for us in game five and has tallied over 2.5 shots in four of his last five games, obviously all of which came against Edmonton.
Take this play at a full unit.
Last Game Bets
Leon Draisaitl to register over 2.5 shots at -160. My $12.50 bet would return $20.31. – MISSED
Tyler Seguin to register over 2.5 shots at -125. My $10 bet would return $18. – HIT
Connor McDavid to score anytime at +135. My $10 bet would return $23.50 – MISSED
