00:00Let's get to tonight. Game two in Dallas between the Oilers and the Stars.

00:04Of course, big comeback for the Stars the other night was fueled by power play goals, getting involved.

00:10Here is Oiler head coach Chris Knobloch.

00:12Doesn't think the Oilers need to change too much tonight in game two.

00:16Just maybe try, I don't know, stay out of the penalty box.

00:18You know, I think there's a lot of positives.

00:20So I don't think they were going to change our game plan.

00:22I don't think we need to alter things a lot.

00:27You know, there are things that we can get better at.

00:30And, you know, one is we know Dallas is a very good team.

00:35A couple areas where they're dangerous and they're on the rush.

00:39They score a lot of goals off the rush.

00:40So we need to make sure that we're not putting them in a position to have success there.

00:46And the other position they're really good in is the power play.

00:49Their power play has been really good, especially the second half of the regular season and into the playoffs.

00:54And they've really capitalized on that.

00:56And obviously the big story last night was the power play goals that they scored in the third period.

01:02So we need to try and eliminate those two things.

01:06I mean, that was like a funeral listening to him.

01:08I got to tell you, I don't believe one guy on that team.

01:12They have so many vets and so many stars.

01:15No one listens to him.

01:17It's possible.

01:20Yeah, it's possible.

01:22That's for sure.

01:23Your boy, Chris, don't call me Chuck Knobloch.

01:26They're the head coach for the Oilers.

01:29The stars are a very slight favorite tonight.

01:33Minus 115, I've got this at now.

01:35Minus 105 for the Oilers.

01:37Six and a half is the total tonight.

01:40Yeah, like, I just, I have to go Oilers again, like I do every night.

01:47I just think they're better.

01:49I think they blew the game.

01:52You're up three to one in the third.

01:53You got to win the game.

01:56I just, it's the same thing.

01:58Remember when the LA Kings let them three one in the third and lost that game to Edmonton?

02:03And it was in Edmonton.

02:05And I was betting, remember that night?

02:06I was betting the Kings plus 125, they're up three one, and they blew it.

02:10And they lost in overtime.

02:11They knew they'd lose when they gave up the goal with 26 seconds left.

02:15And they lost in overtime.

02:17The Oilers had to win that game the other night.

02:19You're up three one on the road.

02:20In game one, you got to win.

02:22So tonight, go out and play the same way.

02:25Don't take stupid penalties and win the game.

02:29That's really what it comes down to.

02:31We shall see.

02:32I do think Edmonton will leave in this series at a game apiece tonight.

02:35I don't think that they'll go home down or two.

02:36But I like the under tonight, too.

02:38I think it's an under going up to six and a half for this game.

02:42As far as to win the whole thing, Florida's the favorite again.

02:46No surprise there after being up 2-0.

02:48Florida, Dallas, Edmonton, and Carolina.

02:52No, I love that 370 on Edmonton.

02:55Oh, my God.

02:56And I'm having spaghetti tonight, too.

02:58What is this, my lucky day?
