The Oilers have been surprising in the sense they have played equally well on the road as they have at home, with a winning record for each venue. The Canadiens have been an entirely different story as they have dominated at home. The biggest reason is the fact they have allowed just 77 goals to get through the net in their 29 home games, or just 2.6 a game. It seems the more this team plays in bunched games the more likely the game will be low scoring. They are now 10-4-1 to the UNDER when playing their third game in four nights, and they are also 6-1-1 to the UNDER when playing their fourth game in six nights - both trends active for this one. Edmonton has also been 7-2 to the UNDER when their opponent allowed two goals or less in their last game, so I like this one to finish UNDER the total.
