Edmonton just rolled past Dallas, 7-1, on Tuesday and Boston, 7-4, on Thursday. You have to think the Oilers can win by more than one goal at home against the Canucks, losers of five in a row with each loss occurring at home. All four of the Oilers' lines are playing well.

The Canucks have surrendered 17 goals during their last four games. The Canucks aren't doing the job either offensively averaging fewer than two goals per game during their losing streak. They rank second-from-the-bottom in the NHL in goals scored.

Vancouver has lost 45 of its last 66 road games.
