Our prediction - Edmonton to win
Edmonton are not used to sitting out on the defensive and are constantly creating chances in the attacking zone. Most likely, Tippett's men will force the opponent to open up. For the Ducks, this will be the second game in two days, and we think they will not have enough energy to stop the Oilers.
