Game Preview
The Edmonton Oilers will have home ice advantage this weekend, as they chase an immediate return to form. They come into this clash sitting top of the Pacific Division standings, but they have suffered four regulation time losses in their last ten.
The Oilers were last in action earlier this week, as they were disappointingly beaten 6-2 by the Boston Bruins. Edmonton were outplayed in that clash from start to finish, and they were made to pay for defensive errors. Despite the loss, the Oilers have impressed at Rogers Place this season, going 10-4-3.
The Flyers will be the visitors to Edmonton this weekend, as they also look for a return to form following a recent defeat. Philadelphia continue to sit in a high position in the Metropolitan Division, with only the Islanders and Hurricanes accumulating more points.
But, consistency has been a slight concern for the Flyers in recent weeks, as they have won just four of their last ten. Over the same period, they have suffered three regulation time losses. The Flyers have gone 9-7-3 on the road this season, which could also impact their chances.
Flyers vs. Oilers Picks
These two teams are evenly matched, but home advantage could count for a lot on Saturday. Therefore, the preference is for the Oilers to claim an important victory.
