#75/76 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* OVER 6.5 Goals - Arizona Coyotes at Edmonton Oilers, Wednesday at 9:35 PM ET - The Oilers are off a 3-2 loss in which they allowed 50 shots on goal.  They continue to struggle defensively but have so much firepower on offense it usually bails them out.  Edmonton has now allowed 83 shots on goal the last two games!  But the Oilers can score with the best of them and continue to be among the league's most dangerous teams offensively.  An added bonus is that Zach Hyman could be back tonight as he did skate yesterday.  Even if he is not back the Oilers still have their top guns of Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.  The Oilers scored plenty against the Coyotes last season as they scored at least 5 goals in each of the 3 games and the last two meetings saw the teams combine for 8 and 7  goals respectively.  Here Edmonton will be hungry to bounce back on home ice as they continue their mastery of attacking the Coyotes and the Oilers respond off the 3-2 loss to the Capitals.  Prior to that defeat Edmonton's last 5 games all totaled 7 or more goals and, in fact, 7 of last 8 games overall had totaled at least 7 goals.  The Oilers have allowed at least 3 goals in 10 straight games!  But Edmonton is a -300 favorite here for a reason.  In other words, it is not a surprise that many of our math models are calling for at least a 4-3 Oilers win and a 5-3 final is the most probable final score that has come up in our math model simulations.  Edmonton will again struggle some in their own zone and the Coyotes have some solid scoring threats and are a scrappy team.  But ultimately this one will be about the relentless Oilers attack showing no mercy as they again pile up goals against Arizona just like they did in all 3 meetings last season!  The Coyotes are struggling this season but have scored an average of 3 goals in their last 7 games and they are scrappy and will fight to be in this one all the way.  They'll have to score plenty to stay in it too and they know it.  That turns this one into a barnburner!  Look for at least 7 in this one!  Over is our play here.
