Competitive NHL action is set for Nov 20, as the in-form Tampa Bay Lightning host the Edmonton Oilers. Find our picks here.
The Oilers will be aiming to rediscover their consistency in the NHL after winning just four of their last ten. Meanwhile, they were beaten in their latest outing.
The Lightning have been in red-hot recent form, winning seven of their last ten and climbing to fourth in the Atlantic Division.
It has been a reliable period in the NHL for the Tampa Bay Lightning.
They come into this round of games after winning seven of their last ten, while they also boast the best defensive record in the Atlantic Division. Tampa were excellent in their latest outing, as they registered a 5-1 home success against the New Jersey Devils.
Jake Guentzel was the standout player in that success after netting three goals.
The Edmonton Oilers will have the odds stacked against them for this challenge.
They have gone 4-4-2 across their last ten, and they already have one of the worst defensive records in the Western Conference. Confidence levels are also likely to be low after the Oilers were beaten 5-1 by the Buffalo Sabres earlier this week.
It is also worth noting that Edmonton will play on back-to-back nights, with this clash against the Lightning coming after a trip to Washington.
| TOTAL | Oilers | Lightning | DRAWS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WINS | 48 | 24 | 22 | - |
| GOALS | 285 | 140 | 145 |
The Oilers could hold interesting claims this week, as the Lightning have really struggled at Benchmark International Arena this season.
They have gone 4-5-0 at home, while the Oilers have delivered some eye-catching displays on the road after winning four of their 13 games.
