What the data says

The 2026-27 season is only 2 games old for the Edmonton Oilers, so this section reads 2025-26 until they reach 10. The table above has both seasons.

The Edmonton Oilers were one of the most-bet teams in the NHL in 2025-26: #5 of 32, with 71.6% of moneyline tickets on average and the public side (60%+ of bets) in 63 of 80 games. In hockey that mostly says how often a team is favored: the public backs favorites, and a strong team is favored most nights.

Their share of the money ran 3.4 points below their share of the tickets (68.2%), so the bigger bets were a little less keen on them than the crowd. As the public side they went 32-31, a record that mostly reflects how often they were favored.

None of this is a pick. Across the league, neither backing nor fading the public side on its own has beaten NHL prices over the last two seasons. See tonight's NHL splits →
