The Bets of the Day are brought to you by NHL odds site Betway!
Welcome back to another edition of the Betway Bets of the day. All bets are for one unit unless otherwise noted.
Our lone bet of the day will be taking Connor McDavid to score and the Oilers on the moneyline. These odds sit at -112 and are under the player props section.
I really like this spot here tonight. The Oilers are -350 favourites on the moneyline and McDavid, the NHL’s leading goalscorer, is -143 to score a goal. Even though the Oilers will be without Evander Kane, they shouldn’t have any issue rolling over the Blue Jackets tonight.
McDavid, meanwhile, comes into this game with goals in three straight games and five in his last five games. He’s up to 40 goals on the year in just 48 games, and could very well push for 70 on the season. He shouldn’t have any issue finding the back of the net tonight.

Record: 96-76 (+14.15u)
Last 30: 25-26 (-5.78u)
Last 7: 3-8 (-5.13u)
