The set-up: The Devils lost 5-2 in Calgary just last night and I expect them to have a hell of a time vs. the Oilers team this evening, as they come in having lost two in a row. Edmonton scored a 4-3 OT win in New Jersey earlier in the season, but I expect a more decisive effort here as it faces these now weary Devils.

The pick: New Jersey averages 2.85 GPG, but the Oilers only allow 2.65. Edmonton on the other hand averages 2.76 GPG, while New Jersey concedes 3.69. Additionally note that after last night's setback the Devils are now an atrocious 14-37 in their last 51 on the road, while Oilers are still 8-2 in their last ten as a home favorite. Look for Edmonton to put the foot on the gas from start to finish and lay the price with confidence.
