Home ice advantage does the Oilers no favors as their road record (18-9-3) trumps their record at Rogers Place (15-12-5). Fortunately, for Edmonton, the Jets aren’t what you would classify as road warriors as evidenced by their 15-14-1 mark on the highway.
Yet, despite the Jets securing a 2-1 victory over the Oilers on New Year’s Eve in their only meeting this season, I like the Oilers in this spot. Winnipeg’s third-leading scorer, Pierre-Luc Dubois, will likely sit this one out with an injury and he was responsible for a critical assist in their first meeting that led to the Jet’s victory.
Lastly, Winnipeg is in the midst of a four-game losing streak while the Oilers are coming off a dominating, 5-2, performance against the Maple Leafs. Let’s back Edmonton in this one tonight and cash a ticket!
