Edmonton can gain on the Golden Knights in the Pacific Division. The Oilers are in double revenge after losing the first two meetings this season, including a tough 1-0 loss on Dec. 3. The Oilers have won four in a row since that game, outscoring opponents 19-7, including a 7-1 rout at Minnesota on Thursday. Leon Draisaitl scored a goal and three assists, and Edmonton won its seventh in eight games. Calvin Pickard had 29 saves for the Oilers, who have won four straight with one day of rest. Stuart Skinner is expected back in net today with a 2.81 goals-against average and he has won four of his past five starts, including a 2-1 victory over Tampa Bay on Tuesday when he stopped 21 of 22 shots. Vegas has gone UNDER five in a row, and Edmonton has stayed UNDER four of six. The Knights are 5-0 UNDER as underdogs of +110 to +150. Take the Oilers and the UNDER.
