After getting out of the gate in sizzling fashion at 4-0, The Oilers have fallen on hard times, as they have recorded just two wins in their last eight games. The biggest problem has been behind the net and overall defense. The Oilers have allowed 24 goals in their last seven games or 3.42 a game, and even with the offense scoring four a game in the last three, it has not stemmed the tide. Pittsburgh scored six in their last game, but has had the same struggles behind the net, allowing three per game in the last three. These teams are both finding the net, yet neither seem to be able to stop anyone right now, so I'll back the OVER here.
