Facing the Oilers at home is daunting and the Kings, after a flurry of wins, have lost 4 straight. Kings goaltender, Quick, usually dependable has given up 11 goals in his last 2 starts. Koskinen has been heavily used but solid this year, but the Oilers do give up an average of 3 goals a game. The combination of the Oilers' explosive offense, their very good PP, and the Kings lack of a PK suggests a high total. Low scoring affairs involving the Oilers are a rarity; take the over.
