Florida at Edmonton

This is the first meeting of the season, and Edmonton has lost three in a row while giving up 14 goals. This is also its first home game following a disastrous three-game trip. The Oilers lost at San Jose, 6-4, on Saturday as Al Montoya allowed five goals, and Cam Talbot is expected back in goal tonight. Talbot has a 3.10 goals-against average with a .902 save percentage and has lost his last two starts. Florida has won four of its last five games, although it comes off a 3-1 loss to Los Angeles on Friday. The Panthers have allowed a total of only nine goals their last five games, and they are 8-1 their last nine games against teams with losing records. The Oilers have lost four of five with one day of rest, and the road team has won five of the last six meetings. Take the Panthers.
