This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Edmonton Oilers.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant O/U ATS statistics and common sense:

As note that New Jersey is interestingly just 5-21 (-15.8 units) in its last 26 "Friday night" games (including only 1-2 this year) and only 4-8 (-3.9 units) in its last 12 after a three game unbeaten streak (including 0-2 this season), while Edmonton is 5-2 (+2.7 units) in its last seven after back-to-back losses in which its scored two goals or less in each game.

The bottom line: The Oilers are so far the lowest scoring team in the league. Last year Edmonton was one of the highest. The Devils have gotten unreal goaltending from Cory Schneider (who just blanked his former team in Vancouver on Wednesday), but with another tough one in Calgary on Sunday, we think that New Jersey finally stumbles here against this desperate Oilers side. Play on EDMONTON.
