Florida is #28 in the NHL in goals allowed and plays its second straight road game after a 6-5 loss at Calgary. Florida is 17-37 on the road after playing a road game, 9-19 after a loss by one goal, plus 75-128 after losing their previous game in overtime. They face a rested Edmonton team that is unbeaten at home (5-0-0), off a 4-3 victory over Washington as a home dog. Edmonton is fourth in the NHL in goals allowed (2.36), so back the superior defensive squad with home-ice advantage. Play Edmonton.
