Chicago is a big underdog in this matchup, partially due to Edmonton playing on home ice, but the Blackhawks are 41-29 on the puckline this season and have won their last four games versus the Pacific Division. Also, Chicago is 15-7 the last 22 meetings and 13-6 the last 19 meetings at Edmonton. The teams are close in goals scored per game with the Blackhawks scoring 2.97 compared to 3.14 for the Oilers. Chicago goalie Corey Crawford has made an admirable comeback after suffering two concussions the season before, and he owns a 2.77 goals-against average and a .917 save percentage. Crawford is 2-0 against the Oilers this season while allowing only four goals on 56 shots. Play the Blackhawks on the puckline for a Max Play and take the UNDER.
