Transcript

00:00Welcome to the BetQL Daily Boost.

00:06I'm Lucy Burge of BetQL and I'm joined by Matt Horner and we have an NHL-on-Boost for

00:11all of you today on Alex Ovechkin to score a goal and record an assist boosted to plus

00:18$5.50 at Caesars.

00:19Matt, what do you think of this boost?

00:21Well, as we know, Alex Ovechkin is in the race to take down Gretzky for the most goals

00:28ever.

00:29He's nearing there.

00:30He's got 22 goals this season.

00:32He's the leading goal scorer for the Capitals, who really aren't that fantastic of an offense,

00:36but they have such a great defense that they can score three goals a game and they can

00:40still win.

00:41I mean, they're 34-11-5, which is fantastic.

00:45And I gave out a future on them earlier this season to win the Metro, so hopefully you

00:48guys took that for ridiculous odds.

00:51They're facing the Senators tonight.

00:52The Senators actually, shockingly, have a good defense for once.

00:57They're allowed 27 shots per game and 2.70 goals per game.

01:02Very rare for the Senators.

01:03The Senators' defense is usually horrendously bad and they're goaltending awful, but they

01:07traded for Linus Ulmark from the Bruins, who I'm sure you know very well, and he has been

01:13performing quite good for them.

01:15But Ovechkin, even though he's super old now, he's still the main focus for their offense,

01:21so he's going to get his shots on goals, certainly.

01:24I'd worry much more about the assist, as we know Ovechkin's much more of a goal scorer

01:27than he is getting an assist, but it's not impossible here.

01:31So if you want to take maybe a quarter unit, something like that on this, I wouldn't mind.

01:36Very nice.

02:02We are one day closer, Matt.

02:04It's still 100 days till the Super Bowl, now it's 99.

02:09Looking forward to that, but if you are preparing your bets for it, including the fun side prop

02:27Favorite bets for today.

02:28If you do follow me on social media, you will see that I have won two hockey bets, three

02:34out of four in the past two days.

02:37And last night I won both of them.

02:39That was Wild Moneyline and Panthers Moneyline, and tonight I am keeping that going with Bruins

02:44Moneyline.

02:45They are facing the Jets.

02:47The Bruins have actually won two of their last three games, and they're a little bit

02:51of a skit.

02:52Bruins are a little up and down.

02:53Bruins are not a team that I will say will win the Stanley Cup this year.

02:57However, I think they can win tonight.

02:59They have won two of their last three games and their last four at home.

03:02They are playing at home tonight, and they are 16-4 and 6 at home.

03:06The Jets have lost two of their last three games on the road.

03:10The Bruins have also won four of their last seven games as the underdog.

03:14They're a bit of an underdog here, so I'm taking the Bruins to win tonight on the road.

03:18There you go.

03:19If I was to give out a hockey bet, I'll take my team tonight, the Blackhawks, at plus 340

03:25against the Archies.

03:26As I was talking about, this actually isn't my official bet, but I'm just ranting here

03:30a little bit.

03:31The Blackhawks, somehow we decide to beat these really good teams.

03:35I mean, we've beaten the Avalanche twice this season.

03:38We went ahead and beat the Lightning the last time out.

03:41We're just really competitive against really good teams, but then we stink against the

03:45Sharks and the Blues and these horrible teams.

03:49I just don't understand the Blackhawks, so plus 340 against the Hurricanes tonight on

03:52the road.

03:53I wouldn't mind that for a small sprinkle there.

03:56I'm going to go to the big game, though.

03:58I'm going to go to the big game here, a player prop I like.

04:01I wrote about this already.

04:02Dallas Goddard, the tight end for Philadelphia, over 4.5 receptions and 50-plus receiving yards.

04:11I think in this game, the Eagles might have to throw it a little bit.

04:16Saquon Barkley is still going to get his, obviously, because he's extremely good.

04:21But the Chiefs know that he is their entire offense, virtually, and they're going to want

04:25to make Jalen Hurst throw this ball.

04:27Dallas Goddard is his security blanket, and Goddard in the playoffs has been unbelievable.

04:31The last nine playoff games he's been in, he's recorded at least four catches in every

04:35one of them.

04:37Every single one of them, he's had at least four catches, so we need him to have one more

04:39here with five at over 4.5 receptions.

04:44He's just been the blanket, the binky, I guess you would say, for Mr. Jalen Hurst.

04:49So I think he can have a big game here.

04:50He's already had a couple of good games in the playoffs.

04:52So give me Dallas Goddard over 4.5 receptions and 50-plus receiving yards against the Chiefs

04:59in the big game.

05:01Can't wait for that for the big game, which is coming up, not this Sunday, of course,

05:06but the next one.

05:07Yeah, forever.

05:08It will be in February by the time, well, it will be in two days, but it will, yeah,

05:13I looked at the date of the Super Bowl because it was like, oh, well, like I know when it

05:17is, but what's the date?

05:18It seems like an eternity from now.

05:20So we'll get there, though.

05:22We will get there.

05:23We will be there with all of you.

05:24We will get through this together and, you know, the bets that we have right now will

05:28help us get through it.

05:29So very excited about all of that.

05:30So get in on all of our bets and the odds boost plus 550 ad seizures and subscribe to
