Buffalo at Edmonton

Premium Pick

A pair of young, rebuilding teams meet. Buffalo is playing better defense than offense, ranked 15th in goals allowed, but 23rd in goals scored. Buffalo is 4-0-5 UNDER the total playing on one day of rest and 31-14-10 UNDER after allowing two goals or less in their previous game. Edmonton is no offensive dynamo either, 22nd in goals scored and 19th on the power play. Edmonton goalie Anders Nilsson has been terrific in the first two tests of Edmonton's five-game homestand, shutting down two of the league's highest-scoring teams. After making 38 saves in Wednesday's 3-2 shootout victory over Boston, the Swede stopped 42 shots in a 2-1 overtime win over Dallas on Friday. Nilsson owns a 1.69 goals-against average while starting seven of the last eight games. The Oilers are on a 4-0 run UNDER the total, as well as 5-0 UNDER at home against a team with a losing road record. The Oilers have failed to score on 11 power plays over their last three games. And when these teams meet, the UNDER is 2-0-2, including 5-2-2 UNDER in this arena. Play the UNDER here.
