San Jose Sharks vs Edmonton Oilers : San Jose Sharks +1.5 (-244)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Thursday night's NHL action brings us a compelling match-up as the San Jose Sharks host the Edmonton Oilers. The Sharks have been a force on home ice recently, with a solid 3-2 record in their last 5 outings. They've shown a consistent offense, managing to net an average of one goal per game, while keeping their goals against average at 3. Not to mention, their penalty minutes have been kept at a minimum, showcasing disciplined play. On the other hand, the Oilers have struggled on the road. They've been lacklustre in front of goal, netting a mere 0.2 goals on average in their last 5 games, while leaking a troubling 3.6 goals per match. Given these recent trends, the Sharks have an excellent opportunity to capitalize on their home-ice advantage and cover the 1.5 puck line. This is one fish that's ready to bite.
