After the way Saturday night’s game against the Flames started with disaster, I truly believe in my heart that the Edmonton Oilers are going to come up with a better effort tonight against the Sabres. It’s not just that I think Buffalo is a beatable team at this stage, but I think that the Oilers have to be upset about the time release effort they’re putting down and I’m hoping that will translate to starting this one with a chip on their shoulders. Dare to dream? I’m a dreamer.
If you’re following along at home, the odds I’ll be using for Risky Business all season come from Betway. Here’s what I’m putting down against the Sabres:
Player Prop:
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to register 1+ assist at +115. My $5 bet would return $10.75
Easy Money:
Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl to each register 1+ power play point at +145. My $5 bet would return $12.25.
Risky Business:
Leon Draisaitl and Evander Kane both to score 1+ goal at +300. My $5 would return $20.
Can’t Miss Parlay:
Oilers to win (Moneyline), over 6.5 total goals, and Connor McDavid to score 2+ at +200. My $5 bet would return $15.
Last Game:
- Leon Draisaitl to hit 2+ points at -118. My $5 bet would pay out $9.25. ✅
- Over 1.5 total power play goals in the game at -125. My $5 bet would pay out $9. ✅
Evander Kane to score 2 or more goals. My $5 bet would pay out $40.- Florida over Buffalo on the ML and Boston over Arizona on the Puck Line at 2.71. My $5 bet would pay out $13.56. ✅
And there you have it, friends. Now that you know what I’m betting on — I’ll be throwing one unit down on each bet, for the record — feel free to hit me up in the comments section to let me know what you’re looking at against the Flames.
