Total: 5.50 | -102.00 Under
Result: Loss
Total: 5.50 | -102.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on WAS@EDM to go OVER the total.
The Caps are in Edmonton tonight, taking on an Oilers team that is coming off it's first win of the season. Washington has yet to lose in regulation, boasting a record of 3-0-2. The home team should hungrier, looking to string a few wins together after opening the season with five straight losses. This is a tough spot for the visitors, playing on the opposite side of the continent against a Western Conference team that they don't see a lot of.
Taylor Hall scored a goal and an assist in the win over Tampa on Monday, and he leads the team with four goals so far. Hall finished last year with 80 points, tied for 6th in the league. He's only 22 years old, and may well develop into one of the league's elite forwards. He's not alone, Ryan Nudgent-Hopkins, Jordan Eberle and Nail Yakupov are all in their early 20s, and each player has superstar potential.
As talented as the Oilers are, they are dreadful defensively. They finished last season dead last in goals against, and they aren't far off from that so far this year. They'll face a potent Washington power-play that has tallied five goals in 20 opportunities so far, and Edmonton struggles on the penalty kill with just a 76% kill rate.
Take OVER
