Early in game three, it looked like the Edmonton Oilers were going to ease their way to a 2-1 series lead. Connor McDavid looked like a man possessed and Edmonton looked like the Harlem Globetrotters in the first period, just all over the Dallas Stars.

In the second period, it looked like the opposite, the Stars flipped a switch and took over the game. Thanks to two straight goals by Jason Robertson and another by Wyatt Johnston to turn a 2-0 deficient to a 3-2 lead. Adam Henrique tied the game late in the second for Edmonton, but Robertson completed the hat-trick mid-way through the third period and the Stars never looked back. Taking home a 5-3 win and a 2-1 series lead.

Today’s expected goaltender matchups for our highlighted game:

The Dallas Stars’ Jake Oettinger (35-14-2) vs. The Edmonton Oilers’ Stuart Skinner (36-15-2).

Yes, we’re running this back, it’s absolutely insane that this bet didn’t hit last game as there’s been recorded video proof that Evan Bouchard should have at least three shots last game. But the shot keepers thought otherwise, oh well. Bouchard’s shot attempts have also been absolutely insane this series.

Bouchard has registered 31 shot attempts in three games this series, he is due for a massive shooting night. If you can ladder him, do that too.

But we will take this play at a full unit.

Wyatt Johnston, on the road again, hit for us last game, so we are of course going to run him back. Has hit in five out of seven road games these playoffs with insane output.

Simple, just run it back at a full unit.

I swear the whole betting community is in on this. Drai is one of the best playoff performers of all time, but has been quiet in this series, scoring only one point in three games. I think this is the night he gets going.

Take this play at a full unit.

Edmonton to score a power-play goal at -150. My $12.50 bet would return $20.83.  – MISSED

Wyatt Johnson to register over 2.5 shots at -130. My $12.50 bet would return $21.75. – HIT

Evan Bouchard to register over 2.5 shots at -175. My $12.50 bet would return $19.75. – MISSED

Still can’t believe Bouchard ended with two shots, turns a solid day into a bad one. We staked $37.50 and returned $21.75. We are now down $64.71 on the playoffs.
