    Look no further if you want action on a underdog tonight

    EDMONTON +210 ML // 3 units to win 6.30

    EDMONTON -0.5 +330 regulation win // 1 unit to win 3.30

    EDMONTON -1.5 +445 alternative puckline // 1 unit to win 4.45

    I think Vegas as a heavy favorite for tonight's game is way off-base. Now, they could very well beat the Oilers, but there are several reasons I cannot pass-up a pretty hefty shot on the visitors tonight:

    3 games in 4 night for Vegas

    Vegas lost their past 5 games in a row

    Those two points alone would have me questioning why are they -230 or higher tonight.

    Vegas players are banged-up with some questionables for tonight: Stone, Stasny, Schmidt, and Pirri. We already know Malcolm Subban is gonna get another start in goal with Fleury resting still.

    This game means about nothing to Vegas in the standings, at this point in the season, so I wonder if they will be of the mentality let's take it easy tonight and not get anyone else hurt, with the playoffs right around the corner after this week.

    Did you know Edmonton is 4-3 W/L against Vegas all-time? So they have some success when facing this opponent.

    This pick is not a "lock" type of play, but I'm hitting it heavy based on the potential payout.

    Other than because the Oilers suck, could anyone give a reason why they like Vegas to win tonight?

    Plus the black goalie theory. Tried and true since Freddie Brathwaite

    Vegas locked in to olay San Jose in 1st round, not a bad flyer on the oil.

    Another dog I like is tomorrow night, wings at home over the pens (-195).

    Currently live +430 available end of 2p only down by one goal. Shouldn't that indicate they won't come back?

    Oilers suck was reason enough, close score but only 19 shots for the Oilers, didn't have the puck long enough most of the game

    Nevermind all the personal questions about when I last got laid.

    Lost man, I lost

    Give me a winner for tomorrow and leave my private life out of it, OK pal?

    Oilers 106 avg line
    Knights -150 avg line

    Knights home 55 cents good teams 55ish, bad teams 45ish
    56 cent spread between the 2 add the 55 cents for home that 111 cents difference
    so take even line of 100 add 111 cents and you have 211 as the ML
