Edmonton Oilers vs. Boston Bruins Prediction: Can Connor McDavid, Oilers Get Revenge?
Well, we have a solid nine game slate to dive into on this fine Tuesday and I am ready to get after it. The Edmonton Oilers (37-20-2) are in Boston for a clash with the Bruins (36-13-14) at the TD Garden a potential Stanley Cup Finals preview (not my prediction but it could happen) that should be one of the best games on the board today.

Edmonton Oilers vs. Boston Bruins Prediction
This is a revenge spot for Connor McDavid and Edmonton after they lost 6-5 in overtime to the Bruins back on February 21st in a game they really only lost one period. The Bruins took a commanding 4-1 lead after they were all knotted up 1-1 in the first before a late goal by the Oilers made the third period comeback attainable.
After that, the Oilers scored two goals in sixty seconds to tie the game before giving it back up five minutes later - but don't worry, they tied it again within a minute. After securing the point and heading to overtime against the most dangerous 3 on 3 team in hockey, Charlie McAvoy scored one of the filthiest goals I have seen all season fooling Patrick Kane and Stuart Skinner for the win.
With that said, I love this spot for Edmonton. Boston just played a super physical game against Toronto and now they get an Oilers squad that is well rested and wants revenge. Good teams like to beat good teams and while Boston played well tonight, they have their work cut out for them here. I am going to be loyal to the Oil here.
