Edmonton had its three-game win streak snapped in a 4-3 overtime loss to Los Angeles yesterday. Both teams are playing a back-to-back after Anaheim also played on Saturday and lost 3-1 to Philadelphia. The Ducks still have won three of five and will have John Gibson starting this game after Lukas Dostal allowed two goals on 24 shots against the Flyers. Gibson has a 2.93 goals-against average and a .909 save percentage. He has stopped 69 of 75 shots his past three games. Calvin Pickard is likely for Edmonton. The holiday break came at the wrong time for the Oilers, who were one of the hottest teams in the league, and we have great line value with the underdog. Take the Ducks.
