Winninpeg wins, but not on the road where they are 8-13. They score nearly a goal fewer per game on the road compared to home, while giving up more on the defensive end, too. The Oilers have struggled this season, but have shown some life recently, winning four of their last six. One thing they do very well is pass the puck, already posting 192 assists. These are the types of teams the Jets struggle against as they have gone just 6-14 this season vs. teams averaging 5+ assists per game. The Oilers are also just 8-22 this season vs. teams like Edmonton that average three or more shots on goal than their opponents. Take the Oilers here.
