1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: Good afternoon everyone. Welcome to the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: live stream here on the Fantasy Pros Twitch channel. The

3
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: Stanley Cup Finals have arrived, perhaps a little bit earlier

4
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 1: then we expected. I am Tyler Kanyam wearing the Edmonton

5
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: Oilers jersey today had to do it, joined as always

6
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: by Betting Pros, NHL expert and Edmonton Oilers fan Kelly Kirby.

7
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 1: I guess I don't have to ask you how you're

8
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 1: doing today.

9
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 2: I'm doing pretty splendid. I'm wearing last year's Western Conference

10
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 2: champion shirt, which is just more I wore it last

11
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 2: night too, which is just more indication of how stupid

12
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: confident I want. Otherwise, like why am I wearing? Why

13
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 2: would I jinx them? And yet I didn't care so

14
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 2: and I didn't drink them.

15
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: Well, it worked out and we're going to talk about

16
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: jinxes today for sure, because there's a big thing that

17
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,959
Speaker 1: the Oilers and McDavid did last night that we will

18
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 1: get to. As a reminder, we are live each and

19

Speaker 1: to talk about. As we get into the Stanley Cup Finals.

26
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: So lots to get into here, lots of storylines, lots

27
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: of different things we can talk about, lots of bets.

28
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 1: You cast your Game five bet there for the Carolina

29
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: and Florida series, so we made some money there. I

30
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: got the Panthers to win Game five on their own,

31
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: so that was nice there. So obviously we've got the

32
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: Florida Panthers and the Evonton Oilers Part two. They rematch

33
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: again in the Stanley Cup Finals last year with the

34
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: Florida Panthers winning this They've never made it for the

35
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: third consecutive year, so I guess in hockey terms, we

36
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: consider this to be a dynasty.

37
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know, like I guess, I hadn't

38
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 2: really thought of it, but maybe. I mean, they keep

39
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 2: arriving out of the East no matter who else is

40
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: doing anything. But you know, again with the rearranged playoffs

41
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 2: this year was also like did they you know? Was

42
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 2: the setup in the best way possible? For them, which

43
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 2: I kind of start to believe that it was a

44
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 2: little bit.

45
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I've kind of been having this conversation with

46
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: my friends of you know, he can't, I guess considered

47
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 1: a dynasty because they've only got one championship so far.

48
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: It's just three appearances. You look at the Golden State

49
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: Warriors and New England Patriots to Kansas City Chiefs. But

50
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: I just feel like in hockey it's not the eighties anymore.

51
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: It's so much harder to get to multiple finals, just

52
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: as we've seen with upsets and all that. So I

53
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 1: think they're pretty close. And then I saw a thing

54
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 1: the two thousan You looked at the twenty fourteen NHL draft,

55
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: by the way or how that worked out, and I

56
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: was looking at it today. Number one pick was Aaron

57
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: Ecklad by the Florida Panthers, still there. Number two was

58
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: I know, dry Settle went through to Edmonton. Number two

59
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: was Reinhart to Buffalo, who then got traded for a

60
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: second round twenty twenty two pick. Eight years later, Bennett

61
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: was number four. He also got traded, so the Panthers

62
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 1: have three of the top four picks, where he went

63
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: to Calgary so it's interesting to see how they've built

64
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: sort of the old fashion wakes. I think a lot

65
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: of times they're saying, you know, the big thing is

66
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: the Panthers get the tax breaks while the players want

67
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: to go there. But when you look at it, they've

68
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: actually kind of built it through the draft. So you

69
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: did mention the playoff format. How do you feel I

70
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: know we've talked about this before the one versus eight.

71
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: We had some great first round series, great second round series,

72
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: then we get to the conference finals. Both of them

73
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: wrap up in five games. Did you find them taking

74
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: yourself out of the Oilers fan part of it? Were

75
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: they anti climactic series? Were they still exciting? How did

76
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: you feel about that?

77
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 2: I feel like they were pretty anti climactic. I mean,

78
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: I think that even the discussions that you and I had,

79
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: even with the I don't know, can Carolina do this

80
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: type of thing, we also talked about how it kind

81
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: of felt inevitable, like the rematch really kind of seemed

82
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 2: like it was set up specifically for this. What you know,

83
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 2: I mean, you liked Carolina, you liked the stars that

84
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 2: it was. I feel like it was okay, maybe on

85
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 2: paper it wouldn't it shouldn't have gone this way that

86
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: the way that it went, And I'm not sure who

87
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 2: else you would put in the conference finals to have

88
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 2: made it better, like for any of these teams.

89
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, and I think the Dallas Evonton series

90
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: was certainly entertaining. I think more entertaining than Florida Carolina,

91
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: which was pretty one sided. I think there, you know,

92
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,359
Speaker 1: there were a couple of games Dallas could have maybe

93
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: won and got this to a game six or maybe

94
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: a game seven. The end of the day, I think

95
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: these were just the two best teams. But I think

96
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: of you know, Dallas Colorado being a great series, you

97
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: think of Winnipeg being a great series. Florida and Toronto

98
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: they go to a game seven, So it's it's you know,

99
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: would you prefer the Leafs and the Panthers to be

100
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: in the conference finals. I don't know, but I know

101
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 1: it's going to be a big topic of conversation, as

102
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: it always is, because you know, when the most eyes

103
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: are on you in the conference finals for one for one,

104
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 1: see you later, time to go home, so be interesting

105
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: to see. I don't think anything is going to change

106
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,919
Speaker 1: in that sense. I think the NHL just likes that

107
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: system way too much, and you've got your Stanley cut

108
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: bet there on the oilers, So what are you planning

109
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: to Are you planning to play off of that and

110
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: taking Florida here? Are you just gonna ride it with Edmonton?

111
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 2: I took Florida when they were plus one twenty five,

112
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 2: just that conversation that we had, and I'm like, I

113
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: don't think that I did. However, last night I looked

114
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: at it. I was like, so, let's see how this

115
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: set up. And I was sitting there and I was like, oh,

116
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 2: such cowards with the minus one ten minus one ten thing.

117
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 2: I'm like, come on, But yeah, no, I took them

118
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 2: at plus one twenty five just to offset. So I

119
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 2: will come out ahead either way.

120
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: But and I think we kind of predicted yet. I

121
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if we get to the end and

122
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: they just say minus one ten minus one ten, especially

123
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: because we've got so much time before Game one. Let's

124
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,559
Speaker 1: see where that's It's already kind of gone a little

125
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 1: bit towards Edmonton. I think they're like minus one twelve

126
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: or minus one thirteen now, so it will be interesting

127
00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: to see how that shakes out.

128
00:05:59,000 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 2: Now.

129
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: I do want to talk about Stanley Cup odds, but

130
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: before we do, I do want to talk to you

139
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: So as a statsky, as a stats nerd, I always

140
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: like going back in time and looking at things and

141
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,239
Speaker 1: looking how things have changed as we've progressed. So before

142
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 1: the playoffs started, the Florida Panthers were plus three point

143
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: fifty to win the Eastern Conference, which they did, so

144
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: if you bet that they cashed. The West was interesting,

145
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 1: and we talked about this a lot. The Stars and

146
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: the Avalanche were both the favorites to come out of

147
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: the West. Oilers were third at plus four fifty, and

148
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 1: it's one of those things I'm looking. You look at

149
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: it now at the benefit of hindsight, and you go,

150
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: why the heck did I not take Edmonton Oilers at

151
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: plus four fifty. They looked mortal at the start of

152
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: round one, and there we are. And then you look

153
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: at the Stanley Cup odds beforehand. You know you got

154
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: a plus eleven hundred I think, or a plus one thousand.

155
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: The Oilers were around plus nine hundred, the Panthers were

156
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: plus eight hundred, which were the second best odds before

157
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: the Stanley Cup started. And now it's obviously shrunk all

158
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,559
Speaker 1: the way down to essentially even money. And then another

159
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: thing that's interesting. When we wrapped up last week's show,

160
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: we said, Connor McDavid for the con smythe is plus

161
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: one sixty five. You're never going to find better odds

162
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: in a first of all, did you bet him at

163
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: plus one sixty five?

164
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, me too, when I was like, yeah, I mean,

165
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: if they make it, I just don't know who else

166
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 2: takes it.

167
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, and he opened. He was the second favorite

168
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: behind Nathan McKinnon. He was plus fifteen hundred to win

169
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: the con Smyth before the playoffs started, and I'm kicking

170
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: myself all the way through because he was plus fifteen

171
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: hundred before round two, he was plus eight hundred, before

172
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: round three, he was plus three fifty. He's now down

173
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: to plus one twenty. So if you got the plus

174
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: one sixty five last week, good for you. Do you

175
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: think there's still value there at taking him at plus

176
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: one twenty, Yeah.

177
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 2: I think there's definitely value. I don't know. I don't

178
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 2: know personally if someone from the losing team wins the

179
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: consum ice ever, but I also think that if this

180
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 2: is even close, or if it's a high scoring and

181
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 2: the Panthers somehow win, I mean, if Bobrovski gives up

182
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 2: more goal, of like, who else are you going to

183
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 2: give it to? But yeah, you know, yeah, I just

184
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 2: don't have any issue. If it's plus money. There's so

185
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 2: many bets I will make if when you give it

186
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 2: to me, I'm McDavid. So this one seems like, I mean,

187
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 2: if they win, there's no question.

188
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: And let's just say hypothetically, I don't want to put

189
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: it into the universe for you, but let's just say

190
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 1: the Panthers win this Daily Cup. Bobrovski's the current favorite

191
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 1: at plus two fifty got bark Off at plus five

192
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: fifteen and to Chuck all the way down at plus

193
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: eighteen hundred. Do you think Bobrovski is to play there

194
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: if the Panthers were to win this.

195
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: Sort of I was looking today about like which players

196
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 2: had really good series last year, and Kochuck was was solid,

197
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 2: and so for his number to be that low, I

198
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 2: that's tempting to me. But I mean, I think that

199
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 2: they have that scored correctly because basically what they're saying

200
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 2: is Edmonton is going to try to outscore him. It's

201
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 2: on Barofsky to stop that. And so I think that

202
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 2: it's okay that he's there. I'm not going to bet it,

203
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 2: but I think that Kokchuck could also have just a

204
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 2: blow up series and steal it.

205
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: So I agree. And when I saw that too, to me,

206
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 1: it's one of those things where like I think McDavid

207
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: at plus one twenty is great because I think that

208
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: that's probably the most likely situation. But yeah, when I

209
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: looked at Florida, I'm like, this is an opportunity that

210
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: let's just go hunting for some value here. You've already

211
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: got plus money on McDavid. That to me, to Chuck

212
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: knowing how he plays in the finals in the playoffs

213
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: in general, he's the type of guy that plus eighteen hundred. Like,

214
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: I just think, if you give to Chuck eighteen times

215
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: to be the best player in the series, is he

216
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: going to do it more than once? And so in

217
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: that sense, I feel like there is some value there.

218
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: So I think for myself McDavid, I've already got the

219
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: plus one sixty five, but I still like it at

220
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 1: plus one twenty and I do not hate Kachuk at

221
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: plus eighteen hundred at all. So as we get into

222
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 1: this series, as we mentioned, it's opened up basically the

223
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: same on either side, minus one ten on the Oilers,

224
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: minus one ten on the Panthers. When you look at

225
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: this series spread, there's some money to be made there

226
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: if you so choose, If you think that this series

227
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: is going to be a quick one, You've got the

228
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: Oilers minus one and a half, they're plus one eighty

229
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: and the Panthers at minus one and a half are

230
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 1: plus one seventy. So we talked about it a little bit,

231
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: but do you think that this is how you expected

232
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: the lines to open for the series? Markets and what

233
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: do you think about the series spreads. Do you think

234
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: one of these teams can get it done in five

235
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 1: games or less.

236
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, actually we'll talk about that a little bit. But

237
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 2: I do think that this could actually get lopsided in

238
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 2: a hurry. So it is interesting to me that the

239
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,079
Speaker 2: Panthers spread is actually that it has better odds and

240
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 2: the oiler spread either way, Like I don't know, Like

241
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 2: in my head, I when I again, when we get

242
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 2: to our other bets, I'm going to make a case.

243
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 2: But you know, I think the smart money is to

244
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 2: avoid the spread at this point because it went seven

245
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 2: last year, even after being down three to zero. It's hard.

246
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 2: It's hard to really see if one of these teams

247
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 2: can kind of just dominate it. But I'm still not

248
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 2: a big fan of the spread.

249
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: That's how I felt as well, and I mean stupidly.

250
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: I guess my favorite bet from round three was for

251
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: both series to go six or more games, and neither

252
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: of them went to six games. And I have the

253
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 1: same feeling here of just this is what's going to

254
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: be interesting, because what I loved about the Eastern and

255
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: the Western Conference finals was that Florida and Carolina were

256
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 1: so similar that was going to be an under series

257
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 1: there wasn't going to be a ton of scoring. Dallas

258
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 1: and Edmonton were pretty similar. That was going to be

259
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: a highest scoring series. So now you take the highest scoring,

260
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: the best defensively, you put it together and now it's like, okay,

261
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: well it was an automatic over for Edmonton Dallas, it

262
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,559
Speaker 1: was an automatic under for Carolina Florida. Once we start

263
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: getting into the games, which we're not going to talk

264
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: too much about today, but once we start getting into

265
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: the games, how are you looking at this? Like, I know,

266
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: game one you can get six's already, Like, do you

267
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: think that the offense can overpower here and we're looking

268
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 1: more towards overs or are we looking more towards unders?

269
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 2: I feel like that entirely depends on which Skinner shows up, right.

270
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 2: I think that because I think that others are going

271
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 2: to put three or more goals up pretty easily, Like

272
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 2: not I mean not easily, but I mean I think

273
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 2: that they'll get to three. The questions is Skinner going

274
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 2: to give up four? So it's that's that's how you

275
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 2: have to look at it. The return of Eckholm is huge,

276
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 2: I think, and now that he's got like six days

277
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 2: of rest, like that's just a monster opportunity there, so

278
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 2: so that with his return, I'm a little bit leaning

279
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 2: towards the under sometimes. But when we get back together

280
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 2: on Tuesday, I'll probably give you an entire speech on

281
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 2: why we should the over. So it's you know, right now,

282
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 2: I'm just like, yeah, I want to see how the

283
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 2: first game goes. But the fact that it's in Edmonton,

284
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm like, I don't know, I would still

285
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 2: if the over stays plus money, I'm like, I'll just

286
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 2: I'll take it.

287
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: So that was my thought I did. I had it

288
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: on the Best bet graphic. Briefly, I took it off,

289
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: but I have bet game one over. It's minus I've

290
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,599
Speaker 1: got the six, so you can get a six and

291
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 1: a half if you want the plus money. I just

292
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: took the six because I always I'm obsessed with push

293
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,719
Speaker 1: potential in hockey, and it was minus one ten or

294
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: minus one fifteen, I think, So I did take that

295
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: initial over, and as you mentioned, the deciding factor for

296
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: me was that this game is in Edmonton. They are

297
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: I don't know what the streak is now, is they

298
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: had won ten of twelve. It might be like either

299
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 1: twelve of fourteen or something like that. Now like they've

300
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: just been rolling and their offense has been rolling that

301
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: now they roll right into Edmonton and they just feel

302
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: like a different team. And the one thing, there's two

303
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 1: things that you mentioned that I want to talk about,

304
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 1: one being the goalie, but got to start with it.

305
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 1: They touched the trophy. So as tradition, if you I mean,

306
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure if you're watching this, you're probably a hockey fan.

307
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: But if you're not, when the Eastern Conference Finals and

308
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: the Western Conference Finals champions are named, they get a trophy.

309
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,959
Speaker 1: There is the Clarence Campbell Trophy and there's the Prince

310
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: of Wales Trophy. For the Western Conference, it's the Clarence

311
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: Campbell Last year and if there's a stigma, you don't

312
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: touch the trophy. You certainly don't touch the Stanley Cup

313
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: until you win it, but you don't touch the you

314
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: can or you can't. Yeah, last year the Edmond Snoilers

315
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: refused to touch the Clarence Campbell Trophy. They lost. This year,

316
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: they touched it. Connor McDavid, there's this funny picture floating

317
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: around and him like very unsure or should he should

318
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: he not? Afterwards he said, well, you know what, last

319
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: year we didn't and it didn't work out. Florida Panthers,

320
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: by the way, didn't touch it last year. One didn't

321
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: touch it this year. What do you make of this?

322
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: Do you think it was a smart thing? I actually

323
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: I like this move because I think again last it

324
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: just to me it shows last year they were a

325
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: little bit timid. They were a little bit scared. It

326
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: was new to them. The Panthers had been there already

327
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: when they lost to Vegas, so they were They had

328
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: a little bit of hesitancy. And to me, this shows,

329
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: you know what, We're just going to go win this now.

330
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: Like I know, I keep bringing up the four Nations,

331
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: but it's such a huge deal for those players to

332
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: have won that tournament. McDavid scores the winning goal in that.

333
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: To me, it just shows this mentality of like, I'm

334
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: not letting us lose it. We're gonna go win this now.

335
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: How do you feel about it?

336
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 2: Yeah? That was the first of all. I left so hard.

337
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 2: When he was standing there and he looked back and

338
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 2: it was kind of that it was that look of

339
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 2: are we sure we're doing this? Like obviously they talked

340
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 2: about it before, you know, I went I told you

341
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 2: last time, I went to the Hockey Hall of Fame

342
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 2: last summer and they were not in the Stanley Cup yet,

343
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 2: but they were in the finals and the Stanley Cup

344
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 2: was there, and so we stood on the platform, my

345
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 2: parents and my wife and I and she was my

346
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 2: wife's like, can I touch it?

347
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: Right?

348
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 2: And the photographer was like, he's like, well, most people

349
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 2: don't do that, like because the team would lose. But

350
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 2: I was like, my wife is so impulsive that I

351
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 2: think she touched it and didn't want to tell me

352
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 2: after and then Edmonton went on to lose.

353
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: Now we know who's exactly.

354
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 2: So I've blamed her for a year. Yeah, I mean again,

355
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 2: this comes back to I I've never I don't know

356
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 2: it's been I watched a lot of sports and this

357
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 2: team is literally acting exactly how you said, Like there

358
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 2: is there is a strong effort going on like like

359
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 2: we don't care, tradition doesn't matter. And yeah, but there

360
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 2: that moment where he was just like are we sure?

361
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: Was totally it's gonna be. Just it blazed in my

362
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: memory of him, look like he looked like a little

363
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: kid all of a sudden, and I done it. Like

364
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: Conor McDavid is a superstitious player. He's worn the same

365
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: socks if you've ever seen that, the same sock since

366
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: Junior that has have hold in them. Like he is

367
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: someone who is very specific with how he goes about

368
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: his business. So I love to see that to say, yeah,

369
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: screw it, we're just gonna go win. And if we don't,

370
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: it's not because of a superstition. It's not because we

371
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: touched a trophy. It's because the Florida Panthers are going

372
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,439
Speaker 1: to have to beat us. So that to me, and

373
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: we've talked about it before. They just when you watch sports,

374
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 1: you just sometimes go You see it all the time

375
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 1: with the Kansaity Chiefs because they just have Patrick Mahomes

376
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 1: and they just don't lose. You go, yeah, this team's

377
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,679
Speaker 1: just gonna win, like you seting it right now. I

378
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,640
Speaker 1: think with the Okac Thunder in the NBA, they're gonna win,

379
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 1: right And I think that that's the vibe that I

380
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 1: get from the Edmonton Oilers. So I'm happy that he

381
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,400
Speaker 1: touched it. Like I said, the Panthers didn't, So we'll

382
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: see how all that plays out. Getting into the nitty

383
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: gritty of the series a little bit, obviously, this is

384
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: a rematch of last year, and the big storyline was

385
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: that the Florida Panthers win the Stanley Cup in Game seven,

386
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 1: a two to one victory. They jumped out to a

387
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: three nothing lead before you know, there's the I think

388
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: it was Game seven, but there's the famous clip also

389
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: of Conor McDavid screaming at everybody in the locker room

390
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: to get it together and to take it seriously. Oiler's

391
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: store and back. They win Game four, five, and six

392
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: by a combined score of eighteen to five. And then

393
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: the other big storyline going into this I guess, is

394
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 1: that it's been more than thirty years since a Canadian

395
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: team has won the Stanley Cup. That was Montreal Canadians

396
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety three. What do you make of I'm

397
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: interested to get your perspective as an American me a Canadian,

398
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 1: what do you make of this whole? Like Canada hasn't

399
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: won a Stanley Cup. I don't make much take much

400
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: stock into it because I look at all the teams

401
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: that win and go Yet well, half your team's Canadian anyway,

402
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 1: So does this really matter? But at the same time,

403
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: for my fellow Canadians, it would be nice to say Hey,

404
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,880
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm happy that the fan base has

405
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 1: the Cup more so than the Cup just being on

406
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 1: a Canadian team.

407
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of interesting because I sometimes lament that

408
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 2: I was not born in Canada. I mean, I'm so close,

409
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 2: and I just think that one of the things about

410
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 2: it is the egotism of Americans, Like that is a

411
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 2: thing that people have held up forever. So if you're

412
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 2: not a fan of a Canadian team, or if you're

413
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 2: not a fan of an American team, and you're just

414
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 2: listening to this, like you're listening to the stat over

415
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 2: and over and over again. So I'm like, obviously, it's Edmonton,

416
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 2: it's my team. I want them to win. But I'd

417
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 2: also just like to shut that up, like because the

418
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 2: same thing, right, like, Okay, let's go through the rosters,

419
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 2: take off all the Canadians, and then let's see how

420
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 2: you do type of deal. But yeah, yeah, and then

421
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 2: in this one, I'm really hoping like if they do

422
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 2: a map of like who's cheering for who, I would

423
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 2: assume that only one specific part of Florida is going

424
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 2: to cheer for Florida. They won last year. I don't

425
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 2: think they're that likable. They don't have like, you know,

426
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of charisma going on. And then

427
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 2: you look at Edmonton and it's like pick someone, yeah,

428
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 2: and and the whole thirty year in which you know

429
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 2: will get brought up constantly. So so yeah, it's a

430
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 2: it's a thing.

431
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 1: Edmonton is definitely the more fun team to watch, the

432
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: sexier team to watch. They've got the goal, They've got

433
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: David Ryesida leading the way with those goals. They just

434
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: play a really fun style of hockey. They're playing old

435
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: school style of hockey in that sense. But I'm hoping

436
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,439
Speaker 1: from that narrative too, because I've had to hear it

437
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: over and over all. The American wins the cob the

438
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: America's one. Like it's like, again, it's not like you

439
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: got It's not like it's the nineteen forties where the

440
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: Maple Leafs are all players from Toronto and the Boston

441
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: Ruins are all players from Boston. It's completely global, So yes,

442
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: I get it, it's technically in America. But also you know,

443
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 1: when the Toronto Raptors won the twenty nineteen NBA Championship

444
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,360
Speaker 1: that wasn't really kind of but it's still America's game,

445
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: So that's my own personal little event there. But yeah,

446
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: it would be nice to see and it would be

447
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: nice to end that drought just because we've got six teams,

448
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: so it'd be nice to change that up. As I mentioned,

449
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 1: when you start looking at the matchups, obviously the star

450
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 1: powers on Edmonton, you've got McDavid, you've got dry Sidle

451
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,959
Speaker 1: leading the way with twenty six and twenty five points.

452
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: But Sam Bennett does lead the way in the NHL

453
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 1: Playoffs with ten goals, which is three ahead of dry Sidle.

454
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 1: Do you look at it like Florida is a deeper

455
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 1: team in the sense of, yeah, they don't have that

456
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: top end talent, but they're back in talent might be

457
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: a little bit better, and then Edmonton is very top

458
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 1: heavy and not so much or do you think it's

459
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: evenly matched all the way through there?

460
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 3: Yeah?

461
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 2: I mean I last year, I would say, if we've

462
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 2: been doing this show, I would have talked about nothing

463
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 2: but how top heavy Edmonton was, because it just seemed

464
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 2: like if if McDavid and dry Sidle were on the ice,

465
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 2: there was nothing happening. I've never seen two athletes look

466
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 2: more tired than they did in Game seven. I mean,

467
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 2: I was just like, I don't even know how they're

468
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 2: standing up at this point. I think that they're deeper

469
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 2: this year. We've talked about him a lot, the return

470
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 2: of Evander Kaine. Everybody loves to hate him. That's fine,

471
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 2: I would if he wasn't on my team, but he

472
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 2: has been kind of holding down that second third area

473
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 2: and really facilitating some some things. We're gonna miss hymen uh,

474
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 2: mostly because of the hits he was getting this in

475
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 2: in the series. But I but again, Skinner is not

476
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 2: exactly a nice guy. So anyway, you just had to

477
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 2: have the And it's it's third playoff game next, But

478
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 2: Florida has a deep They have a very brusher I

479
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 2: think that, yeah, they can score from all over. That

480
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 2: third line with Marshawn has been killing it, but I

481
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 2: don't think it's at all as top heavy as it

482
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 2: used to be either.

483
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,679
Speaker 1: And I think Corey Perry is sort of offset. And

484
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: he's another player I can't stand him because he doesn't

485
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: play for Toronto. If he did, you'd love him. He

486
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: seems to kind of have offset the Brad Marshawn addition

487
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: to Florida, which I think was a great addition on

488
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 1: their side. But he reminds me of the same type

489
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 1: of player at Grinder. He's going to get in front

490
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: of the net, can kill penalties, and he's going to

491
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,640
Speaker 1: get those dirty goals. I think he's I mean, he's

492
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: certainly not going to slide into Zach Hyman's role and

493
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 1: the pure goal scoring and all that. But I think

494
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: in a seven game series they should be able to

495
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,479
Speaker 1: sort of, you know, cover that up a little bit

496
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: better than you know, if it was through the course

497
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 1: of eighty games. I do want to talk about the

498
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: goaltending in a second, but first I just wanted to

511
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: all kinds of things looking at the goaltending. The main

512
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: question I have for you obviously, which Stuart Skinner is

513
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: going to show up. That's been the talk of every

514
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 1: Oilers game that we've had on every single stream. Pickard

515
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: got hurt, but he is back on the bench backing

516
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: up Stuart Skinner. Is this Skinner series win or lose?

517
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 1: Or could we see a change if he comes out

518
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,120
Speaker 1: in game one in game two and gives up six goals.

519
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 2: Right this very second, I wish this was not a

520
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 2: strictly betting podcast because I could talk. I think we

521
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 2: should talk forever about how quickly they about how quickly

522
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 2: they pulled up in last night, and I thought it

523
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 2: was the dumbest thing I've ever seen. But anyway, yeah,

524
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 2: I mean it's I don't think it's skinners. I think

525
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 2: it's Skinners to win or lose. But I also they're

526
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 2: not afraid to make a change, like if if there's

527
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 2: if they're if bad Skinner shows up in game one,

528
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 2: I think that Picard might get a game two. But

529
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,159
Speaker 2: the next question I guess I have is like he

530
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,879
Speaker 2: hasn't really been Bad Skinner as much at all for

531
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 2: a while. So it's like, I like you tweeted last

532
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 2: night after the three goals, You're like, it doesn't even

533
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 2: matter if Bad Skinner shows up. So yeah, I mean,

534
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 2: so it's kind of I guess I need to give

535
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 2: him a little bit more of a break. He's it. Yeah,

536
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 2: I think they'll ride. They'll ride with him, unless it

537
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 2: turns into a blow out the first game, in which

538
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 2: case they might give him a break.

539
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's it's one of those things that not

540
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: that it's a first impression, but it's kind of a

541
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: first impression where he had those just brutal games against LA.

542
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: He comes out and really since then he's been good.

543
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 1: Like when you look at the goaltending matchup, obviously Bbrovski's

544
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 1: been better, sitting in second in goals against IT two

545
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 1: point one one, But Skinner's been moving up the ranks.

546
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,400
Speaker 1: He's at fifth, He's at two point five to three,

547
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 1: which in the playoffs is pretty good anytime you can

548
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: be around two and a half. Bobrovski's got the nine

549
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 1: to one to four safe percentage, which is good for third.

550
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 1: Perhaps that's the only fault. It's at nine oh four,

551
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: which is eight. But you know a lot of that's

552
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: going to be affected by those early games where he

553
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 1: was giving up five goals and like ten shots, which

554
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: is really going to destroy your percentage there. So do

555
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: you think that that is good? How much of goaltending

556
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: you think is going to be a factor in this series?

557
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: Less more than the offense?

558
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think the way Florida plays right

559
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 2: and with Bobrowski there doing what he's doing, then yeah,

560
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 2: the goalten the goaltend is going to make a really

561
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 2: huge difference. You don't want to have that, Like, like

562
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 2: I said, I just keep seeing like one giant slip

563
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 2: up from either one of them. But the Oilers got

564
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 2: the Bibrovski last year. I mean Games four, five, and

565
00:25:55,600 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 2: six were absurd. So it's it's I don't think it's

566
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 2: as big. I don't think it's as big of a

567
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 2: deal as it would be if this was like Winnipeg

568
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 2: versus Florida, where then it would be like, oh the

569
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 2: goal ton In is all of it. It's just uh yeah,

570
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 2: So I'm going to go with it's not as big

571
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 2: as the offense. And then all of these games are

572
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 2: going to end two to one.

573
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: I think it's a situation, yeah, exactly where I think

574
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: Game one is going to be very interesting for this

575
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: depending on what the score is. Who wins, Like if

576
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: Skinner has the bad game and he gives up six

577
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 1: because Florida is not really going to be expected to,

578
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 1: like if they're going to win this series, Florida's got

579
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: to win two to one, three to one, like there

580
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,959
Speaker 1: he can't win six'. FIVE i don't think that's just

581
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 1: not their style of. Game it's not how they like to.

582
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 1: Play so If skinner comes out and does give, up

583
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,919
Speaker 1: say six, goals And bbrovski has a six as a

584
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 1: has a good, game like let's Say florida wins five

585
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 1: to one in game, one it would be interesting just

586
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: to see what the confidence level might. Be but as of, now,

587
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 1: YEAH i think that he's going to benefit now from

588
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: the fact that he's not playing The Dallas. Stars he's

589
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 1: not playing you, know some of these more high powered

590
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: offenses that you might. See so it's going to be.

591
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 1: Interesting AND i think THAT i agree with you with

592
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: The audinger. Pull you can't especially in that instance Where

593
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 1: audinger played every single game the whole way through you

594
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: get into this game now with your back against so,

595
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 1: on and it's, like, okay well you're. Done and it's,

596
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: LIKE i don't know how you can just sort of

597
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: veer away from that trust so, quickly and to react that,

598
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,479
Speaker 1: QUICKLY i do think was a bad. Move so if

599
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: you had to pin one thing is the all things are?

600
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 1: Equal there's ONE x factor in this. Series is it

601
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: McDavid being the best player in the. World is it the,

602
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: goaltending is it the special? Teams what do you think

603
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: could be the difference maker of this?

604
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,919
Speaker 2: SERIES i, mean my initial instinct is McDavid, right, like

605
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 2: you have the best player on the, planet and he

606
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 2: again seems so beyond locked in that it's LIKE i

607
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 2: feel like he just he has another gear and then

608
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 2: and if that gear isn't, enough he'll just get another

609
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 2: one and he'll just keep. Going SO i think he's

610
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 2: the correct answer for. Me it's also Like Newton hopkins

611
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 2: has been playing out of his mind AND i And

612
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,719
Speaker 2: BENNETT i actually on the floor to side like how

613
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 2: much do they keep doing? It because you Know barkhov

614
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 2: And kachuck And reinhart like that those are their top

615
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,120
Speaker 2: Three and If bennett And Jet hopkins can keep doing

616
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 2: what they're, doing then that will be a little bit

617
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,120
Speaker 2: more of AN x. Factor SO i would say McDavid

618
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,439
Speaker 2: than that, line and then the return Of eckholm is

619
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 2: the other.

620
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: Thing, YEAH i have to, agree and THAT i wanted

621
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 1: to try to come up with a deeper, answer but

622
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: coddor McDavid is truly the best player on the planet

623
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: AND i don't think it's particularly close right. Now and

624
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: then when you see the confidence level that he's playing,

625
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: at it just reminds you of all these great players

626
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: who have put the team on their back and, said

627
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 1: IF i have to play thirty five, MINUTES i, Will

628
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: IF i have to play all the special, TEAMS i.

629
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 1: Will IF i did have to look outside, THAT i

630
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: do think it would be the. GOALTENDING i think that's

631
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: the only, real the only real weak Spot edmonton, has

632
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: which hasn't been that, week BUT i think if there is,

633
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: one it's. There perhaps in the. COACHING i Think Paul

634
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: maurice is a great. Coach he's gotten his team to

635
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 1: The Stanley cup finals three straight. Times so maybe just

636
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: when it comes to the x's and, o's when they

637
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: get back To, florida can he come up with a

638
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 1: game plan when he has the second. Change BUT i

639
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: do think these teams are very really evenly, matched just

640
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: in different. Ways BUT i, AGREE i think this series

641
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 1: could also be over pretty quickly. TOO i think it

642
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 1: just kind of. Depends game, ONE i think is really

643
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: going to set the, tone especially with it being In.

644
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: Edmonton so as we get into, it, now let's start

645
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: talking about our best series, bets because both of us

646
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: have some pretty juicy. Ones SO i will let you

647
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 1: get things.

648
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 2: Started, Okay so keep in mind we won last night

649
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 2: to go to The Stanley. Cup i'm a Massive oilers,

650
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 2: fan so WHEN i was looking at the, bets they

651
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 2: are so confident like and, AGAIN i really haven't ever

652
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 2: cheered for a team that was this confident at. All

653
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 2: SO i am putting sprinkling something on the series to

654
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 2: be a sweep at plus six, Hundred could it go

655
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 2: the other way In florida, Sweep i'm. SURE i mean it's,

656
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 2: yea BUT i THINK i think that it would. BE

657
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 2: i feel like it's more possible THAN i would have

658
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 2: considered a month. Ago the other, thing, though is THAT

659
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 2: i would also kind of sprinkle on five games that's

660
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 2: at plus two. Seventy the same rule applies where maybe

661
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 2: If edmonton gets out to The sea lead and then

662
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 2: they punt a, game like you, Know game three In

663
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 2: florida doesn't go their way and then they finish it

664
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 2: up at. Home So i'm fine on four and five,

665
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 2: Games i'm sure the better bet is to go for.

666
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 2: Ten it's gonna go, seven OR i think it's gonna

667
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 2: go seven because they are evenly. Matched BUT i woke

668
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 2: up this running And i'm, like, nah we're gonna go.

669
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 1: Sweep AND i think BECAUSE i, THINK i think seven

670
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: games is plus two, hundred and to, me it's, LIKE

671
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: i think the plus six hundred is probably, like is

672
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: it likely to be a? Sweep probably, not BUT i

673
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: think that's probably more likely than a game seven at those,

674
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: odds like at six to, ONE i think it's definitely

675
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: worth putting the money on. That SO i, think, again who? Knows?

676
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: Right LIKE i thought the same thing about the conference

677
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: finals that, oh you, know these teams match up really,

678
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: well and we could see a seven game series Between

679
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: carolina And, florida and it couldn't have been more. Wrong

680
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: they just rolled right over a team that it had

681
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: rolled right over everybody going into, it SO i do.

682
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: THINK i think that BET's really good. Too mine's pretty.

683
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: Simple i'm just gonna take The Edmonton oilers to win

684
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: The Stanley cup at minus won ten for the same

685
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: reason you've. SAID i Just i've pretty much put a

686
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: lot of my eggs in the basket of being The

687
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: Edmonton oilers, now so if The panthers, Win i'm, SORRY

688
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: i JUST i look at that. Confidence and you can

689
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: Say florida's got the same confidence because they're defending champions as,

690
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 1: well AND i can say that is, True BUT i

691
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: Just edmonton's got the better. Player SO i took The

692
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: Edmonton oilers to win the series minus won. Ten and

693
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: then another one THAT i really like is The oilers

694
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: to Win game one and to win the. Series that's

695
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 1: plus one sixty. Five SO i think game one being

696
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: In edmonton just the momentum they have right. NOW i

697
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: Know florida is hot as, well but the Way edmonton's

698
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: been playing at, home with how absolutely unbelievably loud that building,

699
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: gets and how much of an advantage it is to

700
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 1: play In, edmonton give me The oilers to Win game

701
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 1: one and the series at plus one sixty five and

702
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 1: then to kind of hedge off that the one THAT

703
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: i like as well is For Sam bennett to lead

704
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 1: this series in. Goals it's plus eighteen, hundred so he is.

705
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 1: Eight that number is, correct, Right let me just double

706
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: check and make sure that that is. RIGHT i know

707
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: it was a big plus. Money just double checking that

708
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: bear with. Me plus makes for good, too, sorry plus

709
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: eleven hundred For Sam bennett to have the most, goals

710
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: and AS i mentioned, earlier he is leading THE nhl

711
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,720
Speaker 1: playoffs in goals with ten so. Far and SO i

712
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 1: just look at it like IF i don't want to

713
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: put all my eggs in The edmonton, basket so If

714
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: i'm going to use The florida, BASKET i Like Sam

715
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: bennett to lead the way there with. GOALS i know

716
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: To chuck's. GOOD i Know Ryan hart's, good but he's

717
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 1: just Been he's been the steadying force on offense there

718
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: at plus eleven. Hundred SO i know you've got some

719
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: some juicy ones as.

720
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 2: WELL i first of, ALL i do love the win

721
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 2: game one in the. SERIES i think that combo is

722
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 2: is pretty. Great so when you headed in, THERE i

723
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 2: was a little sad BECAUSE i try not to double,

724
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 2: up SO i was looking on DraftKings at the most,

725
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 2: points and McDavid is plus one thirty to have the most,

726
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 2: points so as the rule, GOES i should just make

727
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 2: a shirt that's, like that's, like if McDavid is plus,

728
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 2: money go for, It, LIKE i, mean there's a there's

729
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 2: always a chance on, paper this is what this is

730
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 2: what he thinks. Like he can always turn that. On

731
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:45,239
Speaker 2: SO i would definitely look into. That and then it

732
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 2: is only plus one, thirty just to, Note but then

733
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,479
Speaker 2: If i'm going to hedge, RIGHT i was looking at,

734
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 2: AGAIN i was looking at The panthers players versus The

735
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 2: oilers in the, playoffs and Kachuk is he's done really

736
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 2: well against them throughout his, career like when he was

737
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: In calgary and. Whatnot so the idea that he would

738
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 2: have the most points like On florida's, side seems reasonable to.

739
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 2: Me and at plus one. Thousand, again if when you're

740
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 2: looking at future stuff like, this you just sprinkle on

741
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 2: where you sprinkle on where you want to, go and

742
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 2: then sometimes it just works.

743
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: Out so, YEAH i like that one as. Well AND

744
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: i did a quarter unit on The bennett one for

745
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 1: the plus eleven, hundred AND i just look at it

746
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: like you, know the whole way through the, playoffs whether

747
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 1: it Was ajo or whoever else to lead a lot

748
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: of times because the you, know the coaching and the

749
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,279
Speaker 1: defense are going to be so keyed in on these

750
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 1: players that sometimes who you think is going to lead

751
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: the way and, scoring LIKE i don't know how many

752
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: Points NuGen hopkins had in the conference finals a, bunch

753
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,399
Speaker 1: And Evan bouchard has been great as. Well that when

754
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: you start getting into these ten to, one eleven to one,

755
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: ODDS i think it's definitely worth just throwing a little bit,

756
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 1: there a quarter unit or, something just because you never,

757
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,919
Speaker 1: know and you could also not THAT i ever want

758
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 1: this to, happen but if you get an injury to

759
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,440
Speaker 1: a key player all of a, sudden you, know it

760
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 1: might change things there as, Well so be interesting to

761
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 1: see what happens. There SO i like To chuck to

762
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: get the most points as, well because he's JUST i

763
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,439
Speaker 1: hate him because of the way he plays the, guys

764
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: the guy you want on your, team but you hate

765
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 1: to play against. Him SO i like that as.

766
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 2: Well SO i think the Closest i've ever come to
