AAA's SINGLE BIGGEST NHL TOTAL FOR WEDNESDAY!
(NHL) Nashville vs. Edmonton,
Total: 5.50 | -130.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is an 8* TOTAL on the OVER between the Nashville Predators and the Edmonton Oilers.

When the smoke clears at the end of this one, I expect this total to eclipse the posted number. A great situational play in my opinion as the visitors are coming off their first regulation loss of the year and will be anxious to return to their winning ways. The Oilers on the other hand are rolling and are looking to keep the momentum going. The Preds lost 3-0 to Pittsburgh on Saturday, while Edmonton would beat Montreal 3-0 on Monday. The Oilers have now won four straight. Note, despite its strong start, Nashville has allowed the first goal in six of its eight games. Both of these team's goaltenders have enjoyed considerable success to start the season, but note that each has struggled against their opponent tonight: Edmonton's Ben Scrivens is 1-2-0 with a 2.37 GAA in three starts against Nashville, while counterpart Pekka Rinne is 2-4-0 with a 3.30 GAA and .872 save percentage in his last seven vs. the Oilers. Note that Nashville has seen the total go OVER the number in 12 of its last 20 after a loss by 2 goals or more in its previous contest, while Edmonton has seen it sail above the number in 11 of its last 15 in front of the home town crowd. The situation, the numbers and the trends all point to the OVER as the savvy move in this one.
