I have the visiting Edmonton as the favorite in this game.
Edmonton is certainly worse off in terms of injuries, but Edmonton have a steady injury problem for about a month now, if not longer, and even there their team is running great. Seattle's side of injury list isn't as big, but the quantity in said infirmary is what should add wrinkles to the home team. Missing names such as Eberle, Giordano and Schwartz which are readable losses for Seattle.
Edmonton is currently in 1st place in the Western Conference with 32 points and a score of 82:61 (2 games to play). For me Edmonton is one of the biggest candidates to win the Stanley Cup. Their offensive duo of McDavid - Draistaitl is unreal and what they are doing reminds me of the 90s when Pittsburgh's Jagr - Lemieux were on a similar rampage.
Seattle is much worse off with 18 points and is 13th in the Western Conference with a 68-81 score.
I myself am surprised that the odds are so "high" on Edmonton, but I think it's because of Seattle's current form, where they beat, for example, Florida or Carolina. But in their last game they fell to Detroit after a shootout.
The current form is certainly on Edmonton's side after all they have 4 wins from the last 5 games + Seattle's injuries I mentioned above will play a big role in this game and that's why I think Edmonton will go for 2 points easily.
Edmonton has already met Seattle once this season and Edmonton won 5:2.
My bet:
3-Way: Edmonton Oilers @ 2.05 (bet365)
