Transcript

00:03 - Here we go again.
00:04 I don't know if it's a Pacific Northwest thing,
00:07 if it's just a people don't pay attention to the Canucks
00:10 'cause they play late at night all the time thing.
00:13 But Scotty, they're 11-3-1 on their home ice, bro.
00:16 - I know. - And they're a home dog?
00:17 Really? Okay.
00:19 They already beat Florida earlier this year.
00:20 We should note that.
00:21 So it is a revenge spot for Florida.
00:23 This is the last time they're playing.
00:24 Vancouver beat them earlier this year.
00:26 But I do like the Canucks here.
00:28 The Canucks have been great.
00:29 They've been very consistent.
00:31 Talking has done a great job.
00:33 They, you know what I mean?
00:34 They're never flat really in a sense.
00:36 And if they are, you know,
00:37 after the first period they'll wake up.
00:40 So, you know, the only thing is I'm not a fan sometimes
00:42 of somebody's ceremonies when the home team
00:44 is standing around before the game.
00:46 But that really hasn't been true
00:48 over the last couple of years.
00:50 And I'm expecting the Canucks,
00:51 their last home game of the stand two.
00:54 Look for them to end strong tonight.
00:56 The lightning, and for the record,
00:58 I like the over one and a half for the first period
00:59 of the Panthers and the Canucks.
01:01 Lightning and Oiler, Scotty,
01:02 the Oilers are now riding an eight game win streak.
01:05 - Right. - Playing great hockey.
01:06 I tell you what though,
01:07 this is pretty pricey at minus 180 right now.
01:09 I think Tampa are a live dog tonight.
01:12 Coming off of their embarrassing loss
01:14 against the Vancouver Canucks.
01:15 And the one, what I will disagree with,
01:18 even though I can't play the Canes at minus 180.
01:22 So I'm not gonna, the number has gone up.
01:24 It was like 160 overnight last night, 165.
01:27 Carolina, Scotty lost four games
01:29 on the West Coast of Canada.
01:31 It's a dreaded trip for teams.
01:33 They lost in Winnipeg, they lost in Calgary,
01:35 they lost in Edmonton, they lost in Vancouver.
01:38 They were very frustrated.
01:40 Then they went to Ottawa.
01:41 They had to go to the East Coast.
01:42 They beat Ottawa, they're back on track.
01:45 They're out of the West Coast.
01:46 I look for the Canes to sort of keep on going,
01:49 but I don't wanna lay 80 cents tonight.
