Edmonton is peaking at the right time and the coaching change in February has proven to be a master stroke by the Oilers. Jay Woodcroft replaced Dave Tippett when the Oilers were out of playoff position and since then they have won 26 of 38 games in the regular season, and eight of 12 playoff games. Mike Smith turned 40 in March, but he has won his last six decisions, including the last four games of the Calgary series. Colorado goalie Darcy Kuemper struggled a bit against St. Louis and his save percentage was just .892 in the series, and it took a goal in the final seconds by Darren Helm to finally put away the Blues in Game 6. This is one of the highest posted totals you'll see in a playoff game and the Avalanche are 12-4 UNDER their past 16 games versus the Pacific Division. The Avs allowed an average of 3.0 goals in the St. Louis series. Two of the three meetings in the regular season stayed UNDER with Colorado scoring a total of only eight goals. Take the Oilers on the puck line and the UNDER.
