00:00 [MUSIC]
00:03 The Oilers and the Kings tonight.
00:04 It's game number three.
00:06 LA wins game number two in overtime in Edmonton.
00:09 Now they change venue to Southern California.
00:12 Kings the home underdog is the right side favorite.
00:16 Yeah, I mean, look, the Oilers know how to compete on the road
00:20 and they're a little embarrassed after their previous performance.
00:22 Skinner has to do a lot better and their D zone has to tighten up.
00:26 But I expect them to try to overwhelm offensively
00:29 and get back in this game and try to lead the series yet again.
00:32 So I like the Oilers' money line here.
00:34 I also like their overtotal.
00:36 I think it takes them a minute to get their legs going
00:38 and the LA Kings are trying to stay in contention here
00:42 and they find ways to score goals
00:44 and they have goal scores that can get past Skinner.
00:46 So I like Oilers' first period puck line just over half at +158,
00:50 but I like the Oilers on the money line as well.
00:53 There we go. We'll see what happens there.
00:55 That's a West Coast game starting at 1030 K.
00:56 So we'll keep it late night tonight.
00:58 10 p.m. start. It's going to be Winnipeg and Colorado.
01:01 A -170 favorite here.
01:02 Actually up from the Fanbula Sportsbook of -146 from earlier today
01:06 and a total of six and a half.
01:08 We're expecting goals.
01:09 What can we expect from a victory here by either one of these teams?
01:12 Yeah, this is going to be an interesting series.
01:15 The Jets' defense is just not coming up to par here.
01:18 They're kind of looking like they did after All-Star Week.
01:20 They're relying on their top pairing to get the job done
01:22 and that's putting a lot of pressure on their goaltender.
01:25 With that said, I expect them obviously to try to make these corrections,
01:29 but the Avalanche's offense is just so overwhelming.
01:31 They have that depth scoring,
01:33 even if it's not their top line between McKennon and Ranson and getting it done.
01:37 I think that the Avalanche can end up actually pulling this one off.
01:41 I think that Georgiev has been questionable in net at best.
01:44 So while I don't trust him much, Walker's going to show up a bit better.
01:48 Kamikaze is going to try to help out in the D zone a lot more
01:52 because he doesn't need to get in on the scoring.
01:54 He can leave that to the forwards.
01:56 With that said, my value plays there are going to probably be more so
02:01 an under total of six and a half.
02:03 I think they keep it a bit closer tonight.
02:06 You can always look to McKennon and Ranson to pick up points
02:08 and also check out the Avalanche on that second period puck line.
02:12 They're going to let this opponent field them out a little bit in the first
02:15 and they're going to try to take a commanding presence for the last 40 minutes.
02:19 So Casey, something I find fascinating,
02:21 three best prices to win the Stanley Cup right now all from the Eastern Conference.
02:25 Carolina, then Florida, then the New York Rangers.
02:28 Fourth best number, the Edmonton Oilers,
02:30 who you've always been slightly cautious of reaching that end goal
02:34 throughout this NHL season.
02:35 If you had to pick a team out of the West where you think there's value right now
02:39 to maybe contend for the Stanley Cup, who would that team be?
02:44 I'm going to go with potentially the Golden Knights.
02:48 They are getting back into rare form.
02:50 They were one of my upset alerts.
02:52 And if they get past the Stars and they have the opportunity to go all the way,
02:56 their new pieces are fighting for having playoff space.
02:59 They come from teams that weren't really capitalizing on those opportunities.
03:03 Hannafin has been off the charts since joining this team.
03:06 Mark Stone comes back in rare form.
03:08 Jonathan Marchesso.
03:09 Barberchev's not talked about enough in what he did in the playoffs
03:12 and he's picking up right where he left off.
03:13 So I think if there's a team to continue to sneak up there,
03:16 it could be the Golden.
03:17 If not, look out for the Predators.
03:19 If they get past this round because Demko's not a net,
03:21 then they're going to be a team that can wear out their opponent
03:24 just like the Panthers do in the East.
03:25 So I'm looking at the Preds and the Golden Knights for us here.
