Oilers vs. Kings Player Props: Game 5 Odds & NHL Expert Picks for Tuesday, April 29
The Edmonton Oilers and Los Angeles Kings have gone Over the total in all four games of their first-round Stanley Cup playoffs series as we make our Oilers vs. Kings player props picks for Game 5. With the series tied 2-2, oddsmakers at our best NHL betting sites opened the total at 6.5 goals for Tuesday’s Game 5 at Crypto.com Arena (10 p.m. ET, TBS, CBC, and Sportsnet).
Naturally, we're backing offense, but not from the most significant names. Here's why we’re betting on Kevin Fiala, Evander Kane, and Corey Perry to do damage tonight.

🚨 Kevin Fiala Over 3.5 shots ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fiala enters Tuesday's action ranked fifth in team playoff scoring, but he leads all Kings forwards in Corsi percentage and shots on goal. Only two other players leaguewide — Nathan MacKinnon and Cole Caufield — have hit the net more often in these playoffs than Fiala’s 19 shots on goal.
His high shot volume has been rewarded too, with Fiala netting goals in three of the four games during this series. The left winger has also tallied 10 times in his last 12 outings dating back to the regular season
At bet365’s +132 price, I’ll happily back Fiala to put at least four shots on target for the third straight contest in this series and sixth time over his last eight games. DraftKings is another solid option at +126.
💰 Best odds: +132 via bet365

🚨 Evander Kane Over 1.5 shots ⭐⭐⭐
It hasn’t taken Kane long to shake the rust off. After missing the entire regular season due to multiple surgeries, Kane returned to action in Game 2 and has generated seven high-danger chances in the series.
He’s also attempted 20 shots during the three games Kane has played, hitting the net four times in both Games 3 and Game 4. Look for those numbers to continue tonight with Kane's ice time gradually increasing (his 23:23 ranked fourth among Edmonton forwards in Game 4).
DraftKings’ -142 odds are the most favorable to back Kane Over 1.5 shots, but FanDuel is offering -120 on Kane to record two-plus shots in regulation time.

🚨 Corey Perry Over 0.5 power-play points ⭐
After largely playing on Edmonton’s fourth line during the regular season and getting little action on the first power-play unit, Perry has earned a promotion for his play in this series.
Perry was one of five Oilers to get more than three minutes of power-play time in Game 4. He made the most of the opportunity with a clever goal in the second period, his second of the series.
I’d love to back Perry on points and shots props, but not many of our best NHL betting sites are offering those odds. Considering his increased usage on Edmonton’s power play, I’ll take a shot at +625 odds on Perry recording a point with the man advantage instead.
💰 Best odds: +625 via bet365
