Senators at Oilers 3/23/19 - NHL Picks & Predictions

The Senators have fallen to being one of the worst teams in the NHL and are definitely not an impressive team so far. However, the Senators are a team that is going to put up a fight as they start to adjust with the talent they have on the roster so far and that could help the Senators out for the following season, but it is going to be a battle for the Senators to win.

Offensively the Senators have been able to score 2.95 goals a game, but the Senators defense has been horrible all year and has not had any improvement at all with 3.70 goals a game allowed. The Senators have managed to convert on the power play at 19.5%, but the defense has killed off 79% of the power plays. With the Oilers they are pretty much eliminated from any type of contention on the season so far and that is going to make it difficult for the Oilers to have some momentum. However, the one thing that the Oilers are going to do in this game is come into it with some momentum after they were able to beat the Blue Jackets in the last game.

The Oilers are coming into this game here with a total of 2.80 goals a game being scored. The defense for the Oilers is giving up 3.28 goals a game on the season.
