T.M. Selection: Oilers/Rangers OVER.

I am on the over in the Edmonton Oilers vs New York Rangers game on Monday. The Oilers only had 5 goals scored in their most recent game but there has been 6+ goals in their 5 games in a row before that one. The Oilers have scored 2+ goals in 5 games in a row but they have also 5 goals themselves in 3 of those games. Their defense and their goaltending has looked shaky in their games lately though. They have given up 3+ goals in 4 games in a row and I think that is going to continue in this game. The Rangers have also been playing in some high scoring games lately. There has been 7+ goals in 2 of their previous 3 games and 5+ goals in 5 of their previous 6 games. The Rangers just scored 4 goals in their most recent game and I think they will be able to get by this Oilers defense that has not looked great at times in their games lately. The Ranger have also scored 4 goals in both of their 2 most recent games and have 3+ goals in 3 games in a row. I think that the Rangers will be able to score on the Oilers here and they will likely keep up with the way their offense has been rolling and score another 3+ goals in this game. The Oilers have not looked good on defense lately but their offense can still score a lot of goals and I think they are going to score a lot in this game too. I think the Rangers will probably take a lead early and the Oilers will be fighting back the whole game trying to score goals to keep tying the game up. There should be a ton of goals in this game with the 2 strong offenses and defenses that have not been at their best. I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Rangers.
