The Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks square off in Game 7 of their Western Conference semifinal on Monday, May 20 No team has won two games in a row in the best-of-seven series See the Oilers vs Canucks odds, predictions, player props, and Game 7 injury reports A back-and-forth series comes to an end tonight when the Edmonton Oilers visit the Vancouver Canucks at Rogers Arena at 6:10 pm PT/9:10 pm ET.

Fortunately for the Oilers, they will be facing a shorthanded Canucks team that’s missing leading goalscorer Brock Boeser (blood clots).
