Edmonton at Ottawa

After losing five straight on the road, the Edmonton Oilers pulled a huge upset beating the Avalanche in their last game 5-3. That might make this team emotionally drained for this one vs. an Ottawa team that is hungry for a win. The Senators have just an OT win to show for their last five at home after a good start. The Oilers have had difficulty building off a big offensive performance, as they are now 1-6 in the game immediately following a five goal or more outburst. Also the Northeast has given them fits where they are just 8-22-1 in their last 31. Edmonton has certainly not thrived vs. the Senators as they have lost their last four, so I'll back Ottawa in this one.
