Stephen Nover's NHL Free Tuesday Play
(NHL) Edmonton vs. Calgary,
Total: 6.50 | -109.00 Over
Result: Loss
Back from holiday break, I expect a fast-skating, up-tempo paced matchup between these two teams.

Connor McDavid, in particular, should be tough to stop. He's having another superstar season and has a strong history against the Flames with 28 goals and 51 points in 36 regular-season games versus Calgary.

The Oilers rank third in the NHL in scoring. They have scored 3 or more goals in 12 of their last 15 games. They've also allowed at least three goals during their past six games.

The Flames have produced at least 3 goals a game in nine of their last dozen games, including the past four averaging 4.5 goals during this span. The Over has cashed in six of the Oilers' last seven road games.

(Editor's note: Stephen Nover is 19-13-1 on his NHL totals and 57-42-1 lifetime on his Max Unit hockey plays. Stephen has a premium totals play and a Max Unit puck line play today in addition to this free selection.)
