Kane looks to pick up momentum off his Oilers hot streak and have a big night versus the Habs
The Oilers look to extend their nine game winning streak on the road against one of the worst home teams in the league with the Montreal Canadiens. As McDavid and the gang go for their tenth win, the Habs will be looking to give their home fans something to cheer for as they have the second-worst home record in the league since the 2021-22 season with 36-58-9, which is worse than the Sharks, Blackhawks and Sabres. The Oilers have a 6-2-2 record in their last ten games at the Bell Centre, which makes them one of the biggest favourites on the Saturday slate.

Pick: Evander Kane over 0.5 points (-110)
Kane has been quiet this season with 14 goals and 24 points in 37 games this season. He hasn’t recorded a point in four straight games and in this offense, that is bound to not last long. He also has a history of dominating the Habs over his career with eight goals and 22 points in 33 career games along with heating up lately with six points in their last four matchups.
The Habs also allow the third-most goals at home with 3.62 a game and will have a hard time slowing down an Oilers team that is averaging 4.11 goals per game during their win streak and 3.53 per game on the season. They will also get to take shots at Jake Allen, who has been one of the worst starters in the league this year with a 3.53 goals against average and a .900 save percentage.
