NHL | Oilers vs Red Wings
Play on: Oilers -185 at Mirage
Tuesday NHL Free play. My selection is on Edmonton over Detroit at 7:35 pm et on Tuesday.
This is a fairly straight-forward selection with the Oilers absolutely rolling right now and the Red Wings coming off consecutive wins and certainly in line for a letdown here. Note that Detroit has won back-to-back games twice previously this season and on both occasions it followed up those performances with a loss, outscored by a combined 6-2 margin. The Oilers check in a fantastic 21-7 the last 28 times they've come off a game where they gave up five or more goals, as is the case here following last Friday's wild 6-5 win over the Rangers. They've outscored the opposition by an average margin of 1.2 goals in that situation. Interestingly, Edmonton has averaged a whopping 4.3 goals when coming off a home win where it scored four goals or more over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by 0.8 goals on average in that spot (14-game sample size). Meanwhile, the Red Wings check in averaging a woeful 1.6 goals when playing at home after scoring three goals or more in consecutive games going back to last season (nine previous occasions). Take Edmonton.
