Does it get any better than a playoff Battle of Alberta? I mean, it goes without saying that this series is going to be intense and I wonder how much of that we’ll get tonight in Game 1. Either way, I’m excited and nervous and cannot wait to get going. We be bettin’!
LAST GAME
I didn’t do very well on my bets in Game 7 but I almost don’t care either. The Oilers won and that made me way happier than anything I would have won in that game.
Player Prop:
Easy Money:
Connor McDavid over 1.5 points at -127 ✅
Risky Business:
Can’t Miss Parlay:
TONIGHT…
I don’t really know what my approach will be for betting on this series so I think I’m going to be a little more cautious in my approach for this first one. Once I know what we’re dealing with then I full plan on ramping things up.
Player Prop:
Evander Kane over 3.5 shots at +100
Easy Money:
First period over 1.5 goals at -147
Risky Business:
Connor McDavid to score at +129
Can’t Miss Parlay:
Oilers/Flames over 1.5 combined power play goals and Artemi Panarin over 2.5 shots for +304
And there you have it. Now that you know what I’m betting on — I threw one unit down on each bet btw — feel free to hit me up in the comments section to let me know what you’re looking at for tonight’s game.
