It's not easy to beat the same team twice in as many days and the Flames hung around last night. However, it's been the story of the last couple of weeks for both teams, the Oilers just find ways to win and finish games at a higher clip. Now at home where the Oilers have played some of their best hockey of the season, you have to like their chances to get another victory. I'll lay the cheap price with Edmonton.
