Edmonton Oilers +1.5 -130
Oilers are 0-8 last 8 at home, 4-17 their last 21 vs Northwest, and 6-21 the last 27 times they were made dogs. So why play Edmonton? Call it a hunch if you like but the Oilers were beat 5-1 on home ice against these same Avs back on March 21st and have been eliminated from playoff contention all while submerged in a 12 game skid. If this team has any pride left they'll find a way to stay competitive tonight against a team still fighting for a playoff spot. 10 of Avs last 15 games have been decided by one goal and before Wednesdays thrashing, the Oilers and Avs two previous meetings were one goal games. Looking for Edmonton to keep it close tonight.
Buffalo Sabres -196
Toronto is 2-6 their last 8 as underdogs and come into Buffalo tonight knowing they have dropped 15 of their last 20 here. I look for the Sabres to continue its dominance here at home where they have gone 24-10-1-2 this season.
Opinion: LA/Chicago Under 5.5 -125
