October 22, 2014 Washington Capitals @ Edmonton Oilers

Season:2-3 -1.05 Units

Week:0-1 -1.00 Units

Let’s look at some betting trends for this match-up tonight. Washington is 7-3 SU in its last 10 games and 4-1 SU in its last 5 games on the road. Washington is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games when playing Edmonton, but are only 2-8 SU in its last 10 games when playing on the road against Edmonton. Washington will also, be without John Erskine and Brooks Laich for tonight’s game.

Edmonton is 1-5 SU in its last 6 games and 2-4 SU in its last 6 games at home. Both Luke Gazdic and Viktor Fasth will miss the game for them.

I really believe the Oilers getting Ryan Nugent-Hopkins back last game was a big deal. I also believe that the Capitals playing without Brooks Laich for the first time this season is a big deal. Washington also has not faired well playing at Edmonton. One thing that’s needs to be brought up is the betting public. Right now 80% of all Off-Shore bets are being placed on the Capitals. The lines opened at Washington 1.69 and Edmonton at 2.25. With 80% backing the Capitals the lined should move a good bit. However, this is not the case. 5dimes has it Washington 1.72 and Edmonton 2.29, Pinnacle has it Washington 1.71 and Edmonton 2.27, Finally BetOnline has it Washington 1.69 and Edmonton 2.32. I believe it’s a pure trap if you take Washington is this spot. Best of Luck!
