Vancouver started last season looking like a certain playoffs team. But they went into a team slump, lost their confidence and didn't even make an appearance in the postseason. They started with a clean slate this season, and seem to have resolved the issues from last season, and are 7-3 through 10 games. Despite a four-game winning streak early in the season, Edmonton remains one of the worst teams in the NHL. I expect that to start showing itself, especially after a loss. The Canucks have handled losing teams where they own a 5-1 record in their last six against one. The Oilers have been dreadful vs. the Pacific where they own a woeful 28-80 mark in their last 108, and Vancouver has taken a win away in five of the last seven meetings. Make the play on Vancouver in this one.
