Edmonton

Edmonton finally got their act together and joined the race for the top spot. It's a little late, but if the club continues to show such results, it will soon catch up with the leading Vegas. Note that the Oilers have been stronger in eight games in a row, one of the best indicators among all teams in the NHL for this period. As for the Oilers' position in the West, they are right below the playoff zone with 27 points.

Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay is not in the best shape for the upcoming road trip. In their last three games, they have one victory - 4-3 - and two losses - 5-1 to Nashville and 4-1 to Vancouver. So, the Lightning still does not sit in their usual playoff zone. They want to settle for 11th place in the East and fifth place in the Atlantic Division with 31 points.

Expect Betting Tips

In our opinion, Tampa Bay will not give Edmonton a fight. The Oilers are in great shape and will try to finish at least in the top 3 of the Western Conference. Don't forget that the game will be played at Rogers Place, where the Oilers are on an eight-game winning streak. Based on the above, we suggest backing the first team to win.
