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 ATS statistics and common sense:
As note that St. Louis is just 1-2 (-1.3 units) in its last three when playing the second game of a back-to-back, while Edmonton is 10-9 (+1.3 units) this year against clubs with winning records and 5-3 (+2.7 units) in the month of December.
The bottom line: The Oilers come in off back-to-back solid victories, with a 5-3 victory over San Jose in their latest action. The Blues fell 2-1 in Calgary just last night and now face an Oilers team that's out to avenge an 8-3 setback on November 21st. And with a tough game at Vancouver on Saturday night before the X-Mas break, it's definitely not too hard to imagine the visitors also getting caught looking ahead. In our professional opinion, this is the very definition of "great line value." Play on the OILERS.
