Chicago Blackhawks vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction

The Chicago Blackhawks are looking more and more like the team from last season, and that’s a club that can’t find easy offense. The Blackhawks will also be playing their third game in four days, and that could be a problem this early in the season. Guys are still trying to get their feet under them. The Edmonton Oilers have the rest advantage, and they should also be eager to rebound from an embarrassing blowout loss to the Jets. The Oilers have won 6 straight games against the Blackhawks and have outscored them 9-2 in the last 3 games alone. Give me the Oilers and the PL for max betting value.
