ANALYSIS

We are backing the Oilers as they hold a significant advantage in puck possession and face a Pittsburgh team playing the second half of a back-to-back while missing defensive anchors Kris Letang and Erik Karlsson. With the Penguins' primary netminder, Stuart Skinner, unlikely to start after playing last night, Edmonton’s high-powered offense is positioned to exploit a fatigued unit that struggled to protect high-danger areas in their recent road stretch.
