The St. Louis Blues have lost four of their last five games and scored only a total of four goals during that stretch. They took a 2-1 loss at Calgary last night and this will be their fourth game in six nights ( Blues are 2-5 in their last seven in the last game of a 4-in-6 situation). Here they'll face an Edmonton Oilers team on the rise, coming off solid triumphs against Minnesota and San Jose to make it three in its last four contests.

Edmonton has been dealing with injuries to its blueliners but Adam Larsson returned from an upper-body injury in Monday's win against the Sharks and Andrej Sekera is slated to make his season debut here against the Blues following knee surgery.

Edmonton had won four straight head-to-head meetings before dropping the first two encounters with St. Louis this season. This looks like a good spot to back the Oilers to get back on track in the series.

My selection is a 10* play on Edmonton Oilers.
