The Edmonton Oilers are set to face off against the Vancouver Canucks in Game 1 of their Western Conference second round playoff series on May 8, 2024, with the Oilers favored at -130 and the Canucks as +110 underdogs according to DraftKings Sportsbook. Early betting action is split 50/50 between the two teams, with the total set at 6.0. 21% of bets are leaning towards the under, while 79% favor the over. Don't miss the excitement as these two teams battle it out on the ice.

Going into Oilers vs Canucks Game 1, Edmonton is a slight favorite on the road. However, the season series between these teams would suggest that the Canucks should be the favorites entering this matchup. Vancouver went a perfect 4-0 against the Oilers during the regular season. And while the Oilers are certainly playing some of their best hockey in time for the playoffs, we are certainly inclined to take the Canucks at plus money to start this best-of-seven series.

In the four games between these teams in the regular season, Vancouver outscored Edmonton by a score of 21-7, a margin more befitting a Canadian Football League game than a series of hockey games. While we do not expect any blowout wins for the Canucks during the more intense postseason, the Canucks certainly have better than a 50% chance to come away with this contest. We will take the Canucks as home underdogs as they should set the tone for this series with a victory.
