Mon Oct 26, 7:00 PM ET
Our pick: Under 5.5 goals+106

LEAN — about a 5 in 10 chance by our numbers

Top pick: Flames to win+138

LEAN — about a 5 in 10 chance by our numbers

For the Calgary Flames to win tonight, they need to outscore the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Detroit Red Wings at Edmonton Oilers

Mon Oct 26, 9:30 PM ET
Our pick: Under 6.5 goals+102

LEAN — about a 5 in 10 chance by our numbers

The Edmonton Oilers have been scoring well lately, winning 7 out of their last 10 games.

How we pick these games

Our model looks at each team's recent form, injuries, rest and the price on offer, and works out how likely each result is. When its number says a bet is more likely to land than the price suggests, the bet makes our list. For each game we show the one main-line bet it likes most. HIGH means it lands about 6 or more times in 10 by our numbers. LEAN means about 4 to 6 times in 10. LONG-SHOT means less than 4 in 10: a bigger payout and a smaller chance. No pick is a sure thing.
