An All-Canadian matchup headlines Sunday’s action as the Ottawa Senators visit the Edmonton Oilers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The pregame narrative:<\/strong> Both teams are playing their second game in as many days and I expect this to be an offensive affair. Ottawa’s power play shouldn’t have any issues producing which is why I like Josh Norris to deliver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Check out my Senators vs. Oilers prop picks for Dec. 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Best Bet: Norris to score 1+ points (+105)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There’s one major mismatch in this game that has piqued my interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The matchup between Ottawa’s power play and Edmonton’s penalty kill skews heavily in favour of the Sens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And that’s a big reason why I’m making this pick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Senators rank an excellent eighth in power-play percentage (23.9%) this season. The unit has been a consistent source of offensive production as the team has won seven of its last 10 games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Edmonton’s penalty kill, meanwhile, has struggled mightily. It places a lowly 26th in penalty kill percentage (74.4%) and will be up against it on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Norris is a featured member of Ottawa’s top power play and one of the team’s top scorers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Special teams aside, Norris’ spot on the second line alongside Drake Batherson is a nice place to be for offensive production. Batherson is second on the Sens with 34 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bet on a strong performance from Norris in a plus matchup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Key stat:<\/strong> Norris has six points in his last nine games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Picks made at 11:21 a.m. ET on 12\/22\/2024<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" An All-Canadian matchup headlines Sunday’s action as the Ottawa Senators visit the Edmonton Oilers.
