Game seven, a chance to be a hero and have your legacy cemented in Vancouver Canucks lore. This is what you live for, both as a fan and a player. The city is vibrating, this feels like it’s going to be the game that people talk about for years to come.
Vancouver will be without their leading goal scorer, Brock Boeser; who will step up for the team? Will this game define Connor McDavid’s legacy as a winner? We’re just a mere few hours away from answering all these questions.
What tension, what drama, what a time to be alive.
Today’s expected goaltender matchups for our highlighted game:
The Vancouver Canucks’ Arturs Silovs (3-0-1) vs. The Edmonton Oilers’ Stuart Skinner (36-15-2).

Quinn Hughes to register an assist at -150. My $12.50 bet would return $20.83.

After a dominant game five, Quinn Hughes was quiet in game six, which was arguably his worst game of the playoffs. In game seven at home, I expect the complete opposite from the Canucks captain. He has been utterly dominant on home ice against the Oilers this season and I expect the Canucks to crack Stuart Skinner a few times.
Take this play at a full unit.

Elias Pettersson to register over 2.5 shots at +120. My $10 bet would return $22.

Elias Pettersson played his two best games of the series in games five and six and has been in on the last two Canucks goals. With Boeser out, I do expect Pettersson to get more shifts with JT Miller and for him to fire away against Stuart Skinner on the power play.
Take this play at .8 units.

Vancouver to win money-line at +135. My $10 bet would return $23.50.

Everything is pointing in the direction of an Oilers win, so much so that the Oilers are -165 road favourites which is insane for a playoff setting. Stuart Skinner is absolutely awful in Vancouver and if the Canucks test him enough I have them winning this game.
Pretty much every “capper” has been on the Oilers every game, I think Vancouver will rally for Brock and the home crowd will be a massive factor tonight.
Take this bet at .8 units.

Last Game Bets

Connor McDavid to register over 3.5 shots at -105. My $10 bet would return $19.50 – MISSED
Quinn Hughes to register over 2.5 shots at +115. My $10 bet would return $21.50. – HIT
Elias Pettersson to score a point at -135. My $12.50 bet would return $21.75. – HIT
Not a bad night, should have went with McDavid points instead of shots. We staked $32.50 and returned $43.25, we are now up $4.62 on the playoffs
