The Arizona Coyotes and the Edmonton Oilers meet in NHL action from Rogers Place on Wednesday night. Let’s dive into the odds, injuries, matchup history and make a prediction for this game.

Odds

Edmonton is a -425 home favorite while Arizona is a +340 road underdog. The total for this game is set at 7 goals.

Injuries

For Arizona, Zack Kassian and Josh Brown are both questionable for this game while Andrew Ladd and Jakub Voracek are both out for the season. For Edmonton, Ryan McLeod is questionable for this game while Ryan Murray is still out until April with a back injury.

Matchup History

Edmonton’s 8-2 win over Arizona back on December 7th, 2022, made it four straight wins for the Oilers in this head-to-head matchup.

Trends

Arizona is 4-1 in their last 5 games overall and 13-38 in their last 51 road games while the over is 6-2-1 in their last 9 Wednesday games. Edmonton is 5-0 in their last 5 home games and 10-2 in their last 12 games against the Western Conference while the over is 5-1-1 in their last 7 Wednesday games.

Pick

I’m siding with the over in this one. I’m backing off of the Oilers right now with the shambles their goaltending is back to being in, while the Coyotes are on a back-to-back on the road and against the highest-scoring offense in the league, that’s not an enviable spot for Arizona to be in. I’m looking for a high-scoring game here, so I’ll back the over in this one.
