Edmonton is 5-1 in their last 6 games as a road favorite and 5-2 in their last 7 games overall while the under is 3-0-1 in their last 4 games as a favorite. Ottawa is 22-50 in their last 72 games overall and 21-49 in their last 70 games against a team with a winning record while the under is 6-0 in their last 6 home games. Edmonton is 7-0 in the last 7 meetings between these two teams.

I get the case that you could make for either side here, as Edmonton’s had the majority of the success this year, but Ottawa tends to play their best at home. Instead, I’m going to side with the over here as the goaltending has a tendency to be a bit questionable on both sides, and I think there’s more than enough on the offensive end to get us over the number here.
