NHL Wednesday 10* Top Play OVER 6.5 in Edmonton Oilers vs Columbus Blue Jackets @ 9:35 ET - The Blue Jackets re-assigned Tarasov to the minors last week. Their current goalies are Korpisalo and Merzlikins. In the last 10 Columbus games those guys have been in the crease, 8 of the 10 have totaled at least 7 goals! Those 8 games averaged about 8 goals. Overall, other than the only recent Tarasov made, the Blue Jackets have allowed an average of about 4 goals per game. Now they have to face a red hot Oilers team so this could get ugly. Edmonton has scored 5 goals per game during their current 6-game winning streak! Also, the Oilers conceded an average of 3 goals per game last 9 home games. So even on home ice Edmonton tends to give up goals but these guys can score like crazy. They are so dangerous and they face a very bad Blue Jackets defense and sub-par goaltending that also just gave a huge effort in Johnny Gaudreau's return to Calgary on Monday. Look for that to help turn this non-conference battle into a wide-open affair with plenty of open ice. 10* OVER 6.5 in Edmonton
