There is just one NHL game on the schedule tonight before a huge 15-game slate on Wednesday night.

It’ll be a rematch of last year’s Western Conference Final, when the Dallas Stars took Game 1 before the Edmonton Oilers won four in a row to advance to the Stanley Cup Final.

My best bets for Tuesday night are looking at the Stars as road underdogs in a high-scoring game.

Let’s get right into the best bets – and their odds at the best betting sites – for Tuesday, Nov. 25.

NHL Best Bets for Monday, Nov. 25

Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook

• Dallas Stars (+114) at Edmonton Oilers
• Stars vs. Oilers OVER 6.5 (+110)
• Jason Robertson OVER 3.5 Shots on Goal (+105)

Dallas Stars (+114) at Edmonton Oilers

The first game back home after a long road trip is always tough, and that’s the case tonight for the Oilers. Edmonton went 3-3-1 during its seven-game road trip and now faces a Stars team that has been picking it up as of late.

Dallas is 6-1-1 in its last eight games and will be hungry for a win after a 3-2 shootout loss in Calgary over the weekend.

The Stars have turned a corner since Roope Hintz returned from the lineup, and this game should be priced closer to a pick’em. I’ll take Dallas as road underdogs tonight.

Stars vs. Oilers OVER 6.5 (+110)

This will be the second meeting this month between the Stars and Oilers after Dallas came away with a 4-3 shootout win back on November 4. That was near the start of a string of high-scoring games for the Stars, who started the season as one of the most-profitable under teams in the league.

Both teams have offensive firepower to score and are missing at least one key defenseman due to injury. I wouldn’t be surprised if this is another 4-3 overtime result on Tuesday night.

Jason Robertson OVER 3.5 Shots on Goal (+105)

Much like the Stars, Jason Robertson has benefitted from Hintz’s return to action. The left winger has 15 points (10 goals) during his seven-game point streak, with 35 shots on goal in that span.

Robertson has had at least four – and five – shots on goal in five of his last six contests. On the season, he’s up to 4+ SOG in 14 of 22 games and 5+ SOG in 11 of 22, including against the Oilers.

I’d take this as well as a sprinkle on 5+ SOG (+225).
