00:00So tonight, I'm going to go Canes, and I'm actually going to Rogie Vajon and take the stars.

00:08They're healthy, they're loaded, they're full lineup.

00:11They're no joke, and I think it's not going to be easy.

00:16You know, it's like me betting the Blues up there.

00:19They were 3-1 with two minutes to go, and I had them at a fat number, and they blew it and lost.

00:25I knew when they tied it with one second left or whatever it was, 1.6 left, that I was going to lose in overtime.

00:32Sure enough, I did, whatever, 18 minutes in or something like that, or whatever it was.

00:36All I know is it's hard to win there, but if anyone can do it, look, I think the Blues are good.

00:41I think the stars are way better than the Blues.

00:43Oh, the stars are, and the stars are getting healthier right now, right?

00:46They now have got Heisken back into the lineup as well.

00:49So they survived their injuries going into the playoffs that we were all worried about.

00:53Ortinger, who I find at time, Scott, will kind of hit a wall in the playoffs a little bit due to fatigue.

01:00He plays a lot of the regular season.

01:02He's been awesome, right?

01:03There's been a big difference.

01:04The two difference makers in the series has been Hellebuck shakiness on the road,

01:09and the Winnipeg Jets' power play is terrible, all right?

01:13Like, they're not even getting shots on goal in the power play.

01:16That's not Hellebuck's fault.

01:18I do think the Jets will win on home ice just because of that.

01:21They're so damn good at home, and Hellebuck doesn't lose at home.

01:25But I don't see how they're going to win on the road.

01:27I mean, if they can pull off game six, I think they can win the series in seven.

01:31But let's go one game at a time.

01:33I'm going to go with the Jets tonight.

01:35And listen, I've been the president of the Canes fan club, bro.

01:37I bet on the beat the Devils in five.

01:40I've been betting them, like, in this series over the Capitals here.

01:43But I believe, Scott, that the Capitals have, you know, put it this way.

01:47If they lose tonight to Capitals, it'll be an overtime, or it'll be like a one-goal game.

01:52Like, they're going to die on their sword tonight, the Capitals.

01:55I think they've got one bullet left, and then they go back to rally and lose in the next game.

01:59So I'm going to roll the dice with the Capitals at plus 145 tonight.

02:02I'm going to roll the dice with the Capitals.
