First Pick: Over 6.5 Goals 

Rundown: The Anaheim Ducks (28-21-3) continue its road stretch as they roll into a Pacific Division battle with the Edmonton Oilers (26-19-8) at Rogers Place.

Anaheim heads into Monday’s contest riding a seven-game win streak, including an overtime win over Calgary on Sunday while Edmonton is looking to build on a 6-5 win over the Washington Capitals. This matchup will feel like a playoff atmosphere, as these teams come into the contest separated by just one point in the Pacific Division.

Both offenses have been prolific this season, combining to average 6.59 goals per game this season. Edmonton has been especially good on special teams, leading the NHL with a 31.8% conversion rate on the power-play this season. 

With two teams searching to climb the Western Conference standings, expect a high-powered offensive attack from each side that leads to a high goal total. 


Second Pick: Chicago Bulls Moneyline

Rundown: The Los Angeles Lakers (27-17) are set to face off with the Chicago Bulls (23-22) in a cross–conference battle at United Center.

Los Angeles is looking to build on a six-point win over the Dallas Mavericks while Chicago is aiming to extend its win streak to five. Chicago’s recent success can be attributed to its offensive excellence, which has averaged 124.0 points per game across the winning span.   

Luka Doncic continues to be the bright spot for Los Angeles, averaging a league-high 33.4 points per game. Doncic helped erase a 15-point fourth quarter deficit against his former team on Saturday in the 116-110 victory. Chicago has seen contributions from numerous members of the roster with seven players averaging double digit points per game. 

Despite Los Angeles’ effectiveness away from Crypto.com Arena, look for Chicago to maintain momentum and come away with a decisive home win.
