This might be as much of an angle riding a hot CHICAGO team as it is fading a struggling EDMONTON squad. Ordinarily, I wouldn’t back a team with a losing record on their third straight road game. BUT, CHICAGO rides a 4 game winning streak into EDMONTON and the fact that this is a 3rd of 3 road games is an angle I sometimes like. The theory here is that a team wants to finish their road stand with a sweep and it applies to this situation. They are not overlooking EDMONTON here and I would look for CHICAGO to face a let down against VANCOUVER in their next game coming off a road stand.
EDMONTON riding a 5 game losing streak. They are in organizational turmoil to a certain extent. While they have McDavid, that’s virtually all they have. EDMONTON is coming home from two games on the road to a fan base that cannot be electrified for them, even after the all star break.
