|---|---|

| Edmonton Oilers | -137 |
The Ottawa Senators have endured a mixed start to the campaign, but their attacking players have flourished in recent games.
They have scored seven goals across their last two games, which included four in a loss against the New York Islanders last weekend.
Despite an eye-catching offensive display, the Senators dropped to the defeat after conceding twice in the final period. Tim Stutzle and David Perron both scored goals in the loss.
Despite making an impressive start to the season, the Edmonton Oilers have now lost each of their last three games.
Defensive questions will be asked of the team after allowing 13 goals across that period. Last time out, they were beaten 4-2 by the Detroit Red Wings.
The Oilers allowed three goals in the second period, which was ultimately costly. Leon Draisaitl and Noah Philp scored the goals in reply.
| TOTAL | Oilers | Senators | DRAWS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WINS | 61 | 24 | 33 | - |
| GOALS | 373 | 170 | 203 |
It has been a challenging period for the Oilers, but this could be a perfect opportunity to get back on track.
If they are able to sort out their defensive issues, they look like the standout win angle. Their chances are enhanced after winning 58.6% of their away games against the Senators.
