Los Angeles Kings vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 01/13/25

The Los Angeles Kings had an unexpected and unwanted break, as their midweek game was postponed due to the awful wildfires in the Southern California area. The Kings headed out of town and played against the Winnipeg Jets on Friday, picking up a low-scoring 2-1 win in overtime. They were back in action on Saturday, falling 2-1 in regulation against the Calgary Flames. The Flames were the team they were supposed to play in LA before the game was postponed. The Kings have cashed the Under in 4 straight games, going for just 2.0 goals per game, while Darcy Kuemper and David Rittich have allowed just 4 total goals in the 4-game span.

The Oilers racked up a 4-3 win against the Chicago Blackhawks last time out on Saturday. Edmonton has picked up 5 victories in the past 6 games, and they’re gone for 3 or more goals in 14 consecutive outings since December 12. The defense and goaltending has allowed just 2.2 goals per game in their last 6. The Oilers have posted a 6-0-2 record in the past 8 meetings against the Kings, although Los Angeles grabbed one of those wins in overtime in the first meeting this season on December 28. The Kings won 4-3 in OT as a slight underdog as the Over hit in that one. Look for the Oilers to maintain their mastery against the Kings, who are unlikely to have the same kind of defensive success against the juggernaut Oilers.
