Best bet: Oilers-Red Wings
The Edmonton Oilers have continued their hot start to the season, and have even installed themselves on top of the Pacific Division once or twice. Now, it’s a matter of staying that way. The Red Wings, meanwhile, are jockeying for position in the Atlantic Division and want to keep the winning record going. Right now, they have a winning record at home, but the Oilers have also performed well on the road.
Look in on the Flames as well, since they’ll be trying to gain some extra points in the same division as the Oilers. Alternatively, keep an eye on Stars-Blackhawks, because the Central Division looks like it’s starting to round back into its normal competitive self now.
