three games tonight in the Stanley Cup playoffs and as I mentioned at the top you have three
00:05
teams all with a similar situation all lost the first two games on the road they are going home
00:11
for a game three they are looking to get this series back going in another direction that is
00:17
Montreal coming home against Washington it is the Devils coming home against Carolina and the
00:22
Edmonton Oilers coming home against Los Angeles now this was one of my favorite plays for the
00:27
first round I love the Kings I thought this was finally the time they've lost to Edmonton three
00:32
years in a row in the playoffs they were going to get him and it's honestly sometimes this does
00:37
happen it has played out exactly I thought now that I think the Kings would score six goals a game
00:41
not particularly uh I didn't think that Skinner would be that bad uh but he has been uh and it's
00:48
helped and now they go to Edmonton up to oh uh kind of similar for me like the Tampa and Florida
00:55
series here I don't think that this is a series where Edmonton's just going to shut the doors and
01:01
say good night uh and be out of here in four games but I also don't think that they're gonna beat the
01:06
Kings four out of five not with the way the Kings are playing right now this is a different King team
01:10
from the past few years that Edmonton has beaten there's a lot more physicality there's a lot more
01:15
edge uh there's a little bit more scoring as well to this team and that's why they're in the position
01:20
that they're in right now and I think that Edmonton is just they they're just they don't have enough
01:25
I think they went too long with too many injuries but McDavid and Dreisaitl I think will get them
01:30
another couple of games and keep this thing going I think that Montreal is going to have a lot of
01:35
juice tonight also uh when you look at this game here with Washington being a very slight favorite
01:40
tonight minus a buck 20 even money for the Habs as they are at home first home game since I believe
01:47
2018 playoff home game for Montreal since 2018 where they will have a full crowd rowdy rabid fan base
01:55
of course those games that they hosted you know they only had you know 10 capacity back during COVID
02:00
they get the full run tonight and they have been tough in this series this has not been easy for
02:06
Washington over the first couple of games minus 1250 for the series plus 740 I'd forget about all of
02:12
that Montreal is not going to win this series but are they going to have a moment here
02:16
at home tonight very very possible now as I tried to give some glimmer of hope to
02:22
some of these other teams I really can't give as much to the devils sorry to all the devil faithful
02:29
out there and I don't like Carolina going forward I've seen the Stanley Cup boards this morning
02:35
where Carolina's favorite or co-favorite depending upon what book you're looking at and there it is
02:41
right there we got them favorites up on our board just them in Florida with Winnipeg,
02:45
Dallas and Toronto sitting there I don't see it still I think that this was a nice gift that
02:52
they got nothing against the devils they're down a couple defensemen again tonight they haven't had
02:56
Hughes this is just a bad spot all around this was a nice bully spot for Carolina in the first round
03:03
I know that Carolina has not been a good road team this year but I think they get out of New
03:07
Jersey here this weekend with at least one game go home 3-1 and the gentleman sweep will be in order for that
