The Flyers showed offensive life in their last game beating the Flames on the road two nights ago, 5-2. Now the Flyers draw Edmonton, which ranks 27th defensively and is last in killing penalties. The Oilers have given up nine power play goals in their last nine games.

The Oilers have shown steady offensive improvement scoring three or more goals in seven of their last eight games. Consequently, the Flyers have permitted three or more goals in nine of their last 10 games. I'm expecting Connor McDavid to play. He has been sick but practiced on Tuesday.

Another plus for the Over is the goaltending. I'm not impressed with Philadelphia's goalies and Edmonton's Laurent Brossoit is one of the worst backups in the league. Brossoit is filling in for injured Cam Talbot. He's 1-4-1 with a 3.81 GAA and .872 save percentage.
