Risky Business: Gritty Betting Boy

I don’t think I’m talking out of school when I say that this is a huge week for our beloved Edmonton Oilers. With three winnable games on the docket, our boys need to find a way to win all three, and that starts tonight in Philadelphia against a Flyers team that has been terrible all season long. We be bettin’, fam!
LAST GAME
Sunday’s game against the Hurricanes was a bummer because I felt like the boys played well enough to get at least a point despite being down some key pieces in their top nine. Unfortunately, silver linings don’t pay the bills and having the squad drop a tough loss like that hurt in the standings and in my wallet.

TONIGHT…
Do I think the Oilers should beat the Flyers even though they’re shorthanded in terms of personnel? Yes. Will I be betting accordingly? Also yes.
Player Prop:
Leon Draisaitl over 1.5 assists at +195
Easy Money:
Zach Hyman over 2.5 shots at -160
Risky Business:
First period over 2.5 goals at +214
Can’t Miss Parlay:
Colorado over NYI on ML, Carolina over Detroit on ML, and Tampa over Ottawa on ML for +161
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.
