00:00So what did you think of Dreisaitl?
00:01I called the Dreisaitl winner last night.
00:04And over time, I've hit four money lines in a row,
00:08four totals in a row in the Stanley Cup Finals.
00:12Scotty, tell you what, you're a pro for a reason, buddy.
00:14What a transition right there.
00:16I, for one, am in the same boat.
00:18I was riding the Oilers' money line last night.
00:20In fact, I doubled down plus 540 down 3-1 in that game.
00:25And they made me so proud and so happy.
00:27And it's Leon Dreisaitl.
00:28You know, it's interesting to me,
00:30if Edmonton goes on to win the Stanley Cup,
00:33I know it's hard to vote against Connor McDavid
00:35winning the Consumite Trophy.
00:36But you can make a serious case, serious, serious case,
00:39in my opinion, for Leon Dreisaitl.
00:41Because it seems like every time this team needs a big goal
00:45or a game-winning goal, it comes from Leon Dreisaitl.
00:48But to tell you what, bud, it's been an awesome,
00:50awesome Stanley Cup final thus far.
00:52For the NHL, you've got to be happy.
00:54The first four games, three of which have gone OT.
00:56You even got Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey in attendance.
00:59Like, you've got to be ecstatic about the way things have gone
01:02the first four games.
01:03I mean, it's just exotic.
01:05It's so great.
01:06It's fantastic.
01:07Game one, they're getting their ass beat.
01:09They win in overtime on a Dreisaitl.
01:11He had the first goal and the last goal in the game.
01:14He had the overtime winner last night.
01:16Game two was overtime.
01:17Marchion with the shorty and the overtime winner.
01:21That was insane.
01:22Game three was a blowout.
01:23Now we'll go to Edmonton.
01:26What do you think happens from here?
01:27I've been on the Oilers all season from day one to win the Stanley Cup,
01:32documented on SportsGrid.
01:34I've been riding.
01:35I said there is no way that McDavid and Dreisaitl aren't getting their names
01:40on that cup.
01:42One word, destiny.
01:44And you speak like a true Pittsburgh Penguins fan,
01:46because, Scotty, you lived this in the late, what, 2009, 2008 era,
01:50where Sidney Crosby loses year one, goes back, and wins Lord Stanley.
01:55And I envision the same thing as you.
01:58They were my preseason pick.
01:59They were my pre-playoff pick.
02:01I stuck with them, even though they were a dog's breakfast going into the
02:04Stanley Cup playoffs.
02:06Quentin Byfield, for me, deserves the Consmite trophy,
02:09because he didn't clear the zone.
02:10Maybe they don't even move on.
02:12I think that the word I would use with Edmonton is destiny.
02:15It just seems like every time they need a big moment, they get it.
02:19Imagine a scenario where Cal Pickard's going to be the guy to lead the Edmonton
02:23Oilers and Conor McDavid to a Stanley Cup.
02:26But you're riding this guy now, and I'm with you.
02:28I believe in the Edmonton Oilers.
02:29In fact, I have four or five futures tickets on them to win the Stanley Cup.
02:33I just think, like, it's their time, Scotty.
02:36I mean, I just think they're special.
02:39And I think that last year, when they came back from 3-0 and got to that seventh game
02:44and to lose 2-1 in a heartbreaker in Sunrise, because it gets real tight,
02:49those sticks, in a seventh game.
02:50I think game six and game seven in this series will be the same thing.
02:54Tight grabbing sticks, stress, pressure, a lot of standing.
02:59You know, I can't sit down when I watch the games.
03:01I got to be standing up and cussing.
03:03I think it's going to get to that point.
03:06What do you think happens tomorrow night?
03:07Carver High mentioned he thinks that with a short rest, only to one day travel
03:13and got to play on Saturday at Rodgers, that he believes the under hits there.
03:17I think it's still game six and seven for me, for the unders.
03:21But I think the Oilers have to win Saturday night in BC or in for Alberta.
03:27I think they have to get it done at Rodgers.
03:30I think they will.
03:31To your point, I have to play the under in game five, six, and seven.
03:35And the trends and data have told us that for a lifetime, almost that if you're going
03:39to bet something over under, it's got to be the under.
03:42I think to your point, the momentum is riding high with the Edmonton Oilers.
03:46I think the time change will impact Florida a bit more than it'll impact the Oilers who
03:50are used to it going from east to Alberta time, two hour difference.
03:54And, you know, the altitude's a bit there.
03:56So I'm trending towards picking the Oilers in that game.
04:00And this is the way I saw it playing out to begin with.
04:02I think they go up 3-2.
04:04I think the Panthers tie things up on home ice.
04:06And a week from now, we're talking about game seven in Edmonton.
