00:00Yeah, this is a crossroads game tonight in this Dallas-Edmonton series.
00:05You know you're going to get Dallas.
00:08They're going to throw the kitchen sink at the Oilers here tonight.
00:11It's one of those not a must win, but it's a must win.
00:15Yeah, it's a must win for the Dallas Stars.
00:17They get it.
00:18They know we can't be down 3-1 to Connor McDavid.
00:21And McDavid's starting to get faster and faster each game, not slower.
00:25And Dallas are starting to slow down, if you notice.
00:28Like, they're not quite.
00:29And I remember I said this about Rant.
00:31The guy's not going to score a hat trick in every game, bro.
00:33He had a nice little run there, and now reality is back.
00:36All right?
00:37And the Dallas Stars are starting to slow down.
00:40The team speed of the Edmonton Oilers is just overwhelming them.
00:43Odinger is getting ambushed between the pipes,
00:46and it's one of those deals where it's not his fault,
00:49but he's also not making the saves now.
00:50Right?
00:51And it's just a snowball effect.
00:53But everything can change with a win tonight.
00:55Like, there's seasons on the line to Dallas Stars.
00:57So, it concerns me.
00:59But you and I, man, we've been pretty much on the same page.
01:02I learned my lesson.
01:03I took the L.A. Kings.
01:05I thought the Kings were going to beat the Oilers.
01:06I was wrong.
01:07It went 7.
01:07We lost.
01:08You know, bam.
01:09I learned my lesson.
01:10I'm like, I'm not getting in front of this team anymore.
01:12And I haven't ever since.
01:13I bet them on literally every game since the L.A. Kings series.
01:17Right?
01:17Through Vegas, into this series.
01:19So, I almost accepted.
01:20If we lose, all right, we lose.
01:21And we'll take the Oilers again.
01:22We think they're going to win the series.
01:24But they're playing so well right now, Scott.
01:27And they're on a mission.
01:29Like, this team is not playing around, the Edmonton Oilers.
01:32Like, they've lost three games, guys.
01:34You know, they lost the first two games in the playoffs to the Kings.
01:37They lost once to the Knights.
01:38They've lost once right now.
01:39They're 10-4 in the playoffs.
01:42Skinner's on fire.
01:44Everything's coming together.
01:45The role players are playing great.
01:46And their top players are starting to dial it up.
01:49Now, Dreisaitl's been cold for a couple of days.
01:51So, now suddenly, he'll step up tonight, probably.
01:54Really close game tonight, guys.
01:56But I just can't get in front of this Edmonton Oilers team.
01:58Give me the Oilers.
01:59But I expect it to be a close game.
02:00And overtime wouldn't surprise me tonight, actually.
02:03Yeah, I actually, they're six wins away from it.
02:06The Panthers are five wins away from it of hoisting the Stanley Cup.
02:11So, I still think, and I've stayed on it from the jump, that the Oilers are going to get it done this year.
02:18But I like the Stars tonight at the price.
02:22I got them at plus $1.41.
02:25And that's what I'm rolling with.
02:27I'm going each game.
02:29I still like them in the series.
02:30I took them in the series.
02:32I bet them in the series.
02:32I bet them from the jump to win the Cup, as you know.
02:36So, I still think they'll get it done.
02:38But I just have this feeling that tonight will be a better game, a tougher game for them than I thought Sunday's game was a walk in the park after 2-1.
