The Edmonton Oilers may be a tick above where they were last year, but this team still has a long way to go to be a playoff team. They have played relatively well at home, and are catching a New Jersey team at the right time. The Devils dropped 7 straight to start the 2013-14 campaign, and came out with purpose this season to avoid a repeat disaster, and turned the trick winning their first 3 games. The good news ended abruptly there as they have struggled since and own a 5-11 mark in their last 16 games, and stand at just 1-5 in their last 6 on the road. new jersey has a poor road resume at just 21-47 in their last 68, and have failed to show up vs the weaker teams where they own a 7-28 road mark in their last 35 vs a team with a home winning percentage under .400. Make the play on Edmonton.
