The Edmonton Oilers have played poor hockey all season, aside from a recent four game run. That is over and they come into this one vs Tampa Bay off a loss, where they have been 5-11 this season. This is a team that has allowed five or more goals in eight games already this season, making the wins few and far between. The Lightning are 4-3 in their last seven on foreign ice and have taken care of business with a high degree of regularity when they are a modest favorite. The Lightning stand at 13-3 in their last 16 posted as a favorite from -110 to -150 and, as a well rested team, they are 5-1 playing off two days rest. The Oilers are now just 22-55 in their last 77 overall and I'll go with Tampa Bay in this one.
