The Dallas Stars need a win in Game 5 at home to avoid being eliminated from Cup contention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my Stars vs. Oilers Game 5 prop picks on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/stats\/nhl\/players\/corey_perry\">Corey Perry<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/stats\/nhl\/players\/jason_robertson\">Jason Robertson<\/a> for May 29.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stars vs. Oilers picks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Best bet: Perry to score a point (+123)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perry has filled in nicely as the net front presence on the top power play, where he skates alongside Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Evan Bouchard, Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The veteran realized the full benefits of that last game, scoring a goal and grabbing an assist with the man advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perry is skating on the Oilers&#8217; first line with Nugent-Hopkins and McDavid, who have combined for 42 points in the playoffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The choice by Kris Knoblauch to replace Zach Hyman (likely out for the season following surgery) with Perry has worked well, so the veteran winger should continue seeing ice time with Edmonton&#8217;s top dogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Tuesday, Perry played his most time on ice (16:51) since Game 2 vs. the Vegas Golden Knights. He had an assist in that contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Perry has a point in every game he&#8217;s played more than 15 minutes in this postseason (5-0 against this wager).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:114203\">Embed: #114203<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/sports-hub\/ice_hockey\/nhl?utm_source=insights&amp;utm_medium=text_link&amp;utm_term=&amp;utm_content=&amp;utm_campaign=sportsbook_nhl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Full NHL betting markets<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/nhl-injury-report?utm_source=insights&amp;utm_medium=text_link&amp;utm_term=&amp;utm_content=&amp;utm_campaign=injury_reports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>NHL injury report<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/stats\/nhl\/top-skaters?utm_source=insights&amp;utm_medium=text_link&amp;utm_term=&amp;utm_content=&amp;utm_campaign=stats_pages\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>NHL stats &amp; standings<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Game 5 prop prediction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Robertson to score a point (+100)<\/strong>: The former two-time 40-goal scorer is coming alive in this series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has goals in back-to-back games and has registered points in three of the four matchups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robertson goes mostly unnoticed, but he&#8217;s shaping into one of the NHL&#8217;s elite point producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>He has over a point per game in his career (394 in 374 games).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The winger has produced in the playoffs, too (42 points in 57 postseason games).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Robertson hasn&#8217;t been his best during this run, scoring just four points in 10 games. But that&#8217;s partially why bettors are getting this much value on the proven scorer \u2014 and I&#8217;m buying in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other reason is Stuart Skinner. He&#8217;s turned his playoffs around, stopping 86 of the last 88 shots he&#8217;s faced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Game 1, Skinner allowed five goals on 22 shots in Dallas. So, a change of scenery could be exactly what the Stars need to get back on track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Either way, Robertson knew how to beat Edmonton&#8217;s goalie even in his best games, so I&#8217;m not overly concerned with the Canadian goalie&#8217;s run of strong form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Stars vs. Oilers prop picks made at 3:13 p.m. ET 05\/2<\/em>8<em>\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Edmonton Oilers have their first shot at getting back to the Stanley Cup Final on Thursday night.
