Trends

Edmonton is 6-0 in their last 6 games against the Atlantic and 8-2 in their last 10 games. The over is 12-4 in Edmonton’s last 16 road games. Ottawa is 4-0 in their last 4 games and 9-19 in their last 28 games against the Pacific. The under is 26-11 in Ottawa’s last 37 games.

Pick

Ottawa comes into this game on a four game winning streak and has played well at home this year. Edmonton has won eight of their last ten games and is 16-7-2 on the road. This game could be high scoring, with both teams struggling on the defensive end of the ice this season. Edmonton has scored at least four goals in three of their last five, while Ottawa has scored at least five goals in their last three games. I like the over here.
