Edmonton at New York

First-place Edmonton isn't just about a high-flying offense, as the defense is fifth in the NHL in goals allowed, and second in penalty killing. It's the second game of a long road trip and the offense has cooled off, scoring two goals the last two games, off a 3-2 loss at Toronto. Edmonton has gone seven straight games UNDER the total and is 18-7-1 UNDER when playing on one day of rest. Goaltender Cam Talbot was a backup goaltender for the Rangers for two seasons before joining the Oilers last season. He is among the league leaders in goals-against average (2.14) and save percentage (.932) and gets the start. The NY Rangers are tied for fifth in the league in goals allowed with Edmonton. New York has a dominant goalie of its own in Henrik Lundqvist, so look for both defenses to shine. Play this one to finish UNDER the total.
