- 0:20Speaker 1: seen anything like this. Man with the slump continuing. Two
- 0:24Speaker 1: straight losses, not a good day at all all in
- 0:27Speaker 1: four Nest have not had a good season. Man with
- 0:32Speaker 1: wookends the slump that I'm on, and the slump continues.

- 1:20Speaker 1: fucking kill me, please. I don't even know what I

- 1:32Speaker 1: What's up, everybody, it's towed back with you better off dead.
- 1:35Speaker 1: This is Saturday, October eighteenth. Thanks for the two people
- 1:41Speaker 1: who hung out with me late last night for the
- 1:43Speaker 1: college football show. I did it at the time I
- 1:45Speaker 1: usually do pretty much, but I came back from Louis
- 1:48Speaker 1: c K last night. Good show. Louis c K extremely
- 1:53Speaker 1: dark set, even for him. I thought it was pretty dark.
- 1:56Speaker 1: It was funny, though, so I enjoyed the show. Jeffrey,
- 2:00Speaker 1: what's up? Thanks for hanging out. We have no baseball today,
- 2:04Speaker 1: so it's gonna be just hockey on the show. Hopefully
- 2:07Speaker 1: it's gonna be pretty quick. I don't have a ton
- 2:09Speaker 1: to say really, to be honest, it's a lot of
- 2:11Speaker 1: quick handicapping with me. For hockey. I think for the
- 2:13Speaker 1: most part, I'm gonna give about two plays, even though
- 2:15Speaker 1: I don't think they're my strongest hockey plays. But I'm like, eh,
- 2:19Speaker 1: we gotta have some hockey action today, so let's just
- 2:22Speaker 1: do it. And they're both somewhat market reads, but I
- 2:25Speaker 1: do agree with the market on them, so we're gonna
- 2:27Speaker 1: go with it. And just I guess see how it
- 2:29Speaker 1: goes college football. I can go back and watch my
- 2:32Speaker 1: analysis on that. I posted the short videos on Instagram
- 2:35Speaker 1: for the best bets as well. I'll reiterate the best
- 2:38Speaker 1: bets at the end of the show for those and yeah,
- 2:43Speaker 1: and then we'll talk about the hockey best bets here
- 2:45Speaker 1: as well. Let me check my audio levels really quick here,
- 2:48Speaker 1: hold on a second. Yeah, I think my audio is fine,
- 2:52Speaker 1: although I sound I just never liked my voice. Man,
- 2:56Speaker 1: let me get my hold on. I gotta get my
- 2:58Speaker 1: NHL plays up in the in the banners here real quick,
- 3:01Speaker 1: because I just did this really quick this morning. Okay,
- 3:05Speaker 1: we got Yeah, I'm looking right. They're both games that
- 3:08Speaker 1: I think are at night. Yeah, all right, I gotta
- 3:12Speaker 1: get these in real quick. I apologize. Yeah, as far
- 3:14Speaker 1: as I saw that comment, did I see the Dodgers game.
- 3:17Speaker 1: I didn't see it, but I heard what happened in it,
- 3:20Speaker 1: which I'm gonna talk about baseball for a brief moment
- 3:23Speaker 1: in a second once I get these in all right, Yeah,
- 3:27Speaker 1: so baseball, we had the Seattle Mariners won yesterday in
- 3:31Speaker 1: the earlier of the two games. Seattle up three to
- 3:34Speaker 1: two in the series. Now they did get a home win,
- 3:37Speaker 1: but now they do have to go back to Toronto.
- 3:39Speaker 1: I think Seattle will get the series, but maybe not.
- 3:43Speaker 1: We'll see because Toronto's gonna have you Savage pitching in
- 3:45Speaker 1: the next game, and we don't know who Seattle starter
- 3:48Speaker 1: is gonna be in. Seattle does have Brian Wu on
- 3:51Speaker 1: the roster. Wu made it. I think it might have
- 3:54Speaker 1: been his first appearance in the playoffs. He pitched in
- 3:57Speaker 1: relief yesterday. Bryce Miller actually gave him a pretty good start.
- 4:01Speaker 1: Wu pitched pretty well in relief, and I think it
- 4:04Speaker 1: was late runs from Seattle that got that one done.
- 4:07Speaker 1: I think Suarez had two home runs in the game,
- 4:09Speaker 1: including a grand Slam that basically was the difference of
- 4:12Speaker 1: the game if I remember correctly. So yeah, I don't
- 4:19Speaker 1: know what else to say about that, but yeah, Seattle
- 4:20Speaker 1: got the win there. Gossman, I think didn't really pitch
- 4:24Speaker 1: terribly in the game, but it was a lot of
- 4:26Speaker 1: late runs. It was Toronto's bullpen. That really blew the
- 4:30Speaker 1: game for Toronto yesterday, and so I think I was correct,
- 4:34Speaker 1: by the way, what I said under early in the
- 4:36Speaker 1: game I think did come through. I'd have to check
- 4:39Speaker 1: to make sure about that. I mean, obviously that wasn't
- 4:40Speaker 1: a play for me. I had a slight lean into
- 4:42Speaker 1: Seattle in that game as well, and then I pretty
- 4:45Speaker 1: much assumed the Dodgers were gonna win, which they did.
- 4:48Speaker 1: I mean that starting rotation is going to be difficult
- 4:51Speaker 1: to beat. I think Seattle is the only team that
- 4:54Speaker 1: has a rotation that might be able to compete with it.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Seattle has a better bullpen than the Dodgers, so if
- 4:59Speaker 1: Seat gets there, they got a shot in Seattle's offense
- 5:03Speaker 1: is at least decent. Of course, I picked Seattle to
- 5:05Speaker 1: win the World Series in my bracket over the Dodgers,
- 5:09Speaker 1: so we will see Dodgers. I mean, they're obviously a threat.
- 5:12Speaker 1: I mean their one weakness is their bullpen, which I
- 5:15Speaker 1: mean it is a fairly significant weakness. But they're starting
- 5:18Speaker 1: pitching is insane. It's old school. They got those guys
- 5:22Speaker 1: back from injury, like there's no weakness, and they're starting
- 5:24Speaker 1: their starting rotation is unbelievably good. It's like one of
- 5:28Speaker 1: the best that I've seen. Then, of course Otani. Yeah, Charles,
- 5:32Speaker 1: what's up? You were the one asking about the game? Otani,
- 5:36Speaker 1: I don't even know, like what, he had ten strikeouts
- 5:38Speaker 1: as the starting pitcher last night and he hit three
- 5:40Speaker 1: home runs? Is that correct? One of the best all
- 5:44Speaker 1: round performances of all time? He's the new mister October.
- 5:50Speaker 1: I don't know, man, Yeah, I mean, it's insane what
- 5:53Speaker 1: that guy's doing. Obviously readhard and what's up. He is
- 5:58Speaker 1: a Dodgers fan, so he's enjoying this this talk very briefly,
- 6:03Speaker 1: I want to get into the hockey Slate today though
- 6:06Speaker 1: a half hour leftter the College Football show. Well thanks
- 6:08Speaker 1: for watching, man, it's a two and a half hour show,
- 6:11Speaker 1: so you must be a masochist. Rutgers in South Carolina
- 6:15Speaker 1: from Mark Lawrence. Yeah, I mean I I agree with
- 6:19Speaker 1: both of those. As I I talked about both games
- 6:21Speaker 1: last night. They're not my they're not my strong opinions,
- 6:26Speaker 1: but yeah, I do agree with both of those. Could
- 6:30Speaker 1: be louder. I keep getting that, man, I got that
- 6:32Speaker 1: when I was on Tower Gang. I got that. H
- 6:34Speaker 1: hold on, let me see what I could do if
- 6:36Speaker 1: I turn it up a little bit, though, I could
- 6:39Speaker 1: turn it up in let me let me see what
- 6:42Speaker 1: my computer volume is on my mic. Let me see. Yeah,
- 6:46Speaker 1: you know it's a little bit low. All right, how
- 6:52Speaker 1: about that? Is that? Is that better? I've gotten in
- 6:54Speaker 1: my in my right ear here too, So I'm trying
- 6:56Speaker 1: to gauge it. But if it's a little bit louder,
- 6:59Speaker 1: I want to like to not speak as loudly. Though.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Dodgers are obviously on fire, but the public is gonna
- 7:05Speaker 1: be all over the Dodgers in the World Series. Though
- 7:09Speaker 1: you went against the Dodgers for the series. In the
- 7:12Speaker 1: World Series, they I mean, they might not win it.
- 7:15Speaker 1: We will see. They're gonna be the road team, I
- 7:18Speaker 1: believe against either opponent at this point, six strikeouts, some
- 7:23Speaker 1: one home run. That would have been a crazy prof
- 7:28Speaker 1: for Otani. That's way better. Okay, Well, thank you man,
- 7:31Speaker 1: thanks for letting me know. Let's get into We're gonna
- 7:33Speaker 1: talk about hockey and that's all we got today. Man,
- 7:36Speaker 1: I'm gonna hit like some of the better games today.
- 7:38Speaker 1: I really don't like this hockey board. Man. I I'm
- 7:42Speaker 1: giving out two plays, but it's kind of like I
- 7:44Speaker 1: don't even know if I want to do that. We
- 7:46Speaker 1: have a couple of afternoon games. The afternoon games are
- 7:49Speaker 1: actually all kind of decent except for sorry Jeffrey, Florida Buffalo.
- 7:54Speaker 1: I'm not sure if this is a decent matchup or not,
- 7:56Speaker 1: because I just don't think Buffalo is good. But maybe
- 8:00Speaker 1: it will be competitive here. It's a competitive line. At
- 8:03Speaker 1: least Florida is down for minus one to fifty three
- 8:06Speaker 1: to minus one forty here sixty four percent of tickets,
- 8:09Speaker 1: seventy one percent of cash on Florida. I believe Jeffrey
- 8:12Speaker 1: has a play on Florida and this one if them
- 8:14Speaker 1: not mistaken. The cash seems to agree with that, even
- 8:17Speaker 1: though the initial money line dropped on Florida. I looked
- 8:21Speaker 1: at this and I'm not so sure Florida there. I mean, yeah,
- 8:25Speaker 1: they're in the middle of a bad run here, which,
- 8:28Speaker 1: as you've pointed out, they have a lot of injuries
- 8:30Speaker 1: right now too. They're gonna have Bobrovski back in nets,
- 8:33Speaker 1: so that should be good for them. These tarsaw in
- 8:35Speaker 1: the last game, so they'll have their better goalie in net.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Assuming he's not heard or anything like that. It should
- 8:41Speaker 1: be him they're they're amidst a stretch of three straight
- 8:46Speaker 1: losses here, but their most recent loss was to a
- 8:49Speaker 1: pretty good New Jersey team, and now they are playing
- 8:51Speaker 1: a third game in four days, fourth game in six days,
- 8:54Speaker 1: all in different cities. And that's just something I look
- 8:57Speaker 1: to go against a team when they're in a scheduling
- 8:59Speaker 1: spot like that tip because it's just a schedule that's
- 9:02Speaker 1: two jam packed. So the rest scenario is just bad.
- 9:05Speaker 1: It's just not there. Although again, they will have their
- 9:08Speaker 1: starting goalie, their number one goalie in net probably in
- 9:11Speaker 1: this one, so that's good at least. But I don't know, man,
- 9:14Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, they're gonna, I assume show up. Because
- 9:16Speaker 1: the team has lost three games in a row. Isn't
- 9:18Speaker 1: really gonna start overlooking anybody but Buffalo. It's hard to
- 9:22Speaker 1: focus on a team like Buffalo, Man, and Buffalo, they
- 9:26Speaker 1: did just get their first win at least, which might
- 9:28Speaker 1: give them a little bit of momentum here, and they've
- 9:30Speaker 1: had rest. They're the much more rested team here. They're
- 9:32Speaker 1: not traveling, and they beat Ottawa decent win there. Ottawa
- 9:37Speaker 1: dealing with a pretty main a pretty significant injury to
- 9:40Speaker 1: a could chuck, so they lost their team captain, their
- 9:44Speaker 1: autaw it did all the Auto still decent team. Buffalo
- 9:48Speaker 1: did get that win, though I know it was a
- 9:49Speaker 1: blowout win, so maybe it makes a Buffalo look too
- 9:52Speaker 1: good with an eight to four win. But when you
- 9:55Speaker 1: get that first win of the season again, it's like
- 9:57Speaker 1: you get that monkey off your back. And I think
- 9:58Speaker 1: I wound up being correct about And Jose being the
- 10:01Speaker 1: last winless team. I think they might already be that now.
- 10:05Speaker 1: I'm not sure about that, but I thought San Jose
- 10:07Speaker 1: would be the last remaining winless. But yeah, Buffalo got
- 10:10Speaker 1: that win. It could give them a little bit of momentum.
- 10:12Speaker 1: You know they're gonna show up when it's the returning
- 10:14Speaker 1: champs Florida coming into their place. So I'm gonna slightly
- 10:18Speaker 1: disagree with Jeffrey on that one. I would lean to
- 10:20Speaker 1: Buffalo slightly in that one, but not a strong opinion.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Islanders at Ottawa Ottawa, I think they're kind of underperforming
- 10:30Speaker 1: right now. I know they have that injury to Kachuck
- 10:32Speaker 1: that I just mentioned. They do have a day off
- 10:35Speaker 1: here and they're staying at home. They had a stretch
- 10:37Speaker 1: with three losses in a row that wasn't a very
- 10:39Speaker 1: good stretch. Losing in Nashville and Buffalo. That's some ugly stuff. Man.
- 10:43Speaker 1: I thought that they would win against Seattle, so I
- 10:46Speaker 1: was correct with that. Lean They beat Seattle, though they
- 10:48Speaker 1: had to go into a shootout to do it. Now
- 10:51Speaker 1: they got the Islanders here, and they do have Edmonton
- 10:53Speaker 1: up next to I'm not sure that auDA was gonna
- 10:55Speaker 1: start overlooking anybody, because I mean, they really can't at
- 10:59Speaker 1: this point. The Islanders, I think they are kind of
- 11:01Speaker 1: a sneaky team, though I think they're not as bad
- 11:04Speaker 1: as their record looks right now. So this is a
- 11:06Speaker 1: difficult game to figure out. I don't know what the
- 11:08Speaker 1: starting goalie matchup is gonna look like in this one.
- 11:12Speaker 1: It looks like we're gonna have Sorak and has already
- 11:14Speaker 1: confirmed from the Islanders he is their number one goalie.
- 11:17Speaker 1: Oh Mark is probably gonna be in net for Senators,
- 11:20Speaker 1: so it'll be, uh the top two goalies will be
- 11:23Speaker 1: in net, which, by the way, same thing Florida Buffalo
- 11:26Speaker 1: both their starting goalies I think are gonna be in
- 11:28Speaker 1: net for this one. So yeah, this game is really
- 11:32Speaker 1: difficult to read. So I kind of then just look
- 11:34Speaker 1: to the market, like what is the market doing, and
- 11:36Speaker 1: the market is saying Islanders auto is down for minus
- 11:39Speaker 1: one forty six to minus one thirty eight, sixty percent
- 11:42Speaker 1: of tickets, ninety nine percent of the cash. I don't
- 11:44Speaker 1: believe that cash percentage is accurate, but I do think
- 11:47Speaker 1: the money is coming in on the Islanders to some
- 11:50Speaker 1: extended dropping that line on Ottawa. So it looks like
- 11:53Speaker 1: there is money coming in on the Islander side. I
- 11:56Speaker 1: don't really see it. I mean, I don't see a
- 11:58Speaker 1: whole There's not a whole lot going on in this
- 12:01Speaker 1: game as far as the situation is concerned. And I
- 12:04Speaker 1: would worry about the Islanders because they did just beat Edmonton,
- 12:07Speaker 1: which is a big win, and now they're playing only
- 12:09Speaker 1: their second road game of the season and they lost
- 12:11Speaker 1: their first road game, which I know because that was
- 12:14Speaker 1: a loser on my show. I gave them out in
- 12:16Speaker 1: that game against Pittsburgh. I felt that they should have
- 12:18Speaker 1: won the game. I think they outplayed Pittsburgh in the
- 12:20Speaker 1: game they didn't win. So this is only gonna be
- 12:24Speaker 1: their second road game of the season, which I think
- 12:26Speaker 1: is a little bit difficult. They're in a little bit
- 12:28Speaker 1: of a letdown spot. Ridiculously enough, they actually use their
- 12:31Speaker 1: second string goalie in that game where they beat Edmonton Riddish,
- 12:35Speaker 1: so Islanders are still winless with Sorok and a net,
- 12:39Speaker 1: which is ridiculous. But we'll see what happens in that one.
- 12:43Speaker 1: And then Oilers are at New Jersey. The Oilers and
- 12:47Speaker 1: the Devils sounds I don't know, kind of sexy in
- 12:51Speaker 1: a way, the Devils coming off that win over Florida,
- 12:55Speaker 1: even though Florida, you know, maybe not quite as good
- 12:58Speaker 1: this year, they're an injured team right now, but still
- 13:00Speaker 1: a big win when you beat Florida. Men. New Jersey
- 13:03Speaker 1: did it with their backup goalie, Allen in Nettle. I
- 13:05Speaker 1: don't think Allen is that bad really. I think New
- 13:07Speaker 1: Jersey's goaltending tandem Markstrom and Allen are both actually fairly good.
- 13:12Speaker 1: On New Jersey with that win, could be a little
- 13:15Speaker 1: bit of a letdown spot coming off of that, although
- 13:16Speaker 1: I know you're not necessarily gonna be a let down
- 13:18Speaker 1: spot with Edmonton being your next opponent because they're good.
- 13:21Speaker 1: But who knows. Man, I mean, beating Florida is a
- 13:24Speaker 1: big deal for a team like New Jersey. That's kind
- 13:27Speaker 1: of like on the upstart and made the playoffs last year.
- 13:30Speaker 1: I think they might have made the playoffs one other
- 13:32Speaker 1: year recently, but they had a really nice season last year,
- 13:35Speaker 1: so that might continues. This is at least sandwiched in
- 13:37Speaker 1: between two Eastern Conference games because they do have Toronto
- 13:40Speaker 1: coming up after this too, So don't know that it's
- 13:43Speaker 1: the greatest spot for the Devils. Nobody messes with the
- 13:47Speaker 1: Devils in this one. And the Oilers are coming up
- 13:49Speaker 1: that ugly loss to the Islanders, and they're making the
- 13:53Speaker 1: New York and New Jersey triple leg here, which is
- 13:56Speaker 1: somewhat difficult to do to make all to have all
- 13:59Speaker 1: three of those games. They at least had a day
- 14:01Speaker 1: off between each game, and they're coming off an ugly loss,
- 14:05Speaker 1: So maybe a better spot to maybe look for Edmonton here.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Probably you might get pickered and net in this one.
- 14:12Speaker 1: I'm not sure, man. Let's see what starting goalie says.
- 14:15Speaker 1: It looks like Skinner is projected. We don't know yet though,
- 14:19Speaker 1: and Allen looks like he's projected, which I'm not sure
- 14:21Speaker 1: about that either, So I don't really know what the
- 14:23Speaker 1: goaltending situation is gonna look like in this one. Makes
- 14:27Speaker 1: it maybe a little bit more difficult but maybe not
- 14:29Speaker 1: because I just don't like either Edmonton goalie really and
- 14:33Speaker 1: I somewhat like both of the Devil's goalies, So I
- 14:36Speaker 1: don't know if it matters that much as far as
- 14:37Speaker 1: the handicap Hulu goalie is gonna be. The money's actually
- 14:40Speaker 1: coming in a New Jersey sixty four percent of tickets,
- 14:43Speaker 1: eighty percent of the cash coming in a New Jersey,
- 14:45Speaker 1: Edmonton down for minus one fourteen and minus one to wait.
- 14:48Speaker 1: I slightly disagree with that one though. I would kind
- 14:52Speaker 1: of lean towards Edmonton in that one, just because they're
- 14:54Speaker 1: coming off in a fairly ugly loss and New Jersey
- 14:58Speaker 1: is coming off a big win. So that's kind of
- 15:00Speaker 1: the way that I look at that. I ever really
- 15:02Speaker 1: dug into the box scores to see like what actually
- 15:04Speaker 1: happened in those games, Like Edmonton against the Islanders. There
- 15:09Speaker 1: was one empty net goal at the end of the game,
- 15:11Speaker 1: so this game was close, and the Islanders did have
- 15:13Speaker 1: a shorthanded goal as well in the game, and I
- 15:17Speaker 1: think their other goals were both power play goals too,
- 15:19Speaker 1: so little bit misleading somewhat maybe on the final score there.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Edmonton had more shots than the Islanders in the game
- 15:25Speaker 1: the Islanders with a way more physical team. I mean Edmonton,
- 15:30Speaker 1: they's somewhat of a finesse team, but that's really low
- 15:32Speaker 1: amount of hits in the game. And Edmonton did win
- 15:35Speaker 1: the face off battle, so slightly misleading result in that
- 15:37Speaker 1: one as well. Edmonton played a little bit better than
- 15:40Speaker 1: it looks except for the lack of physicality. So yeah,
- 15:44Speaker 1: I would have a slightlying to Edmonton in that one. Yeah, yeah,
- 15:48Speaker 1: that's right exactly. Charles gotta support the team. Pain in
- 15:52Speaker 1: my face and then right, and then he pats his
- 15:59Speaker 1: chest later because a lane David Putty Man Seinfeld amazing show,
- 16:03Speaker 1: one of the best ever. And then Elaine tells him
- 16:05Speaker 1: to no longer paint his face. He paints his chest.
- 16:11Speaker 1: What are you doing? I told you not to paint
- 16:13Speaker 1: your face. Yeah, I know you did, and as you
- 16:17Speaker 1: can see, this is clearly not my face. Dude, Putty
- 16:22Speaker 1: is like he's one of the best characters man. Patrick Warburton,
- 16:26Speaker 1: hilarious actor, also the voice actor and family guy for
- 16:30Speaker 1: Joe Swanson, that is Patrick Warburton. He's done some other
- 16:34Speaker 1: things too. Those are probably the two most well known though,
- 16:39Speaker 1: But yeah, dude, he's awesome. It's Putty. I remember he
- 16:41Speaker 1: had that other mind. I don't remember if it was
- 16:44Speaker 1: that episode or a different episode where he's just like
- 16:47Speaker 1: on the couch with a lane and then he gets
- 16:48Speaker 1: up to like go somewhere. I don't remember exactly what
- 16:51Speaker 1: the context even was, but he was like, he's all right, babe,
- 16:55Speaker 1: I'll be back later. We'll make out. It's so ridiculous. Yeah,
- 17:01Speaker 1: El Diablo deals me the the Oh it's not it's
- 17:06Speaker 1: not a woman though, right, it's a man. It's a
- 17:07Speaker 1: male priest. I think, who Uh Putty runs in front
- 17:11Speaker 1: of his vehicle and he thinks he's the devil, and
- 17:13Speaker 1: then he thinks U Ulaane is like an angel or
- 17:17Speaker 1: something at the end when he's like on his deathbed
- 17:20Speaker 1: or whatever. Patrick Warburton, you have very good voice. Of course,
- 17:25Speaker 1: that's true. He's also pretty prominent in the in the
- 17:30Speaker 1: twis episode because that's the car dealership or Jerry's there
- 17:36Speaker 1: to get his car repaired or looking into buying a
- 17:39Speaker 1: new car. So I forget what exactly what was going
- 17:41Speaker 1: on in that episode, but uh, George with trying to
- 17:44Speaker 1: get the twigs out of the out of the vending machine,
- 17:47Speaker 1: that episode is so ridiculous. The right ball jacket eight
- 17:54Speaker 1: ball you mean you mean like the Shriners Club jacket one.
- 17:58Speaker 1: I don't remember. Man, It's all kind of a blur,
- 18:00Speaker 1: Like I'll start watching a Sidefeld episode and like be like,
- 18:04Speaker 1: oh wait a minute, this is also the episode where
- 18:06Speaker 1: this happens. Like you remember one main component of an
- 18:09Speaker 1: episode and then you forget that this other plotline also
- 18:11Speaker 1: happened in that same episode, and then they somehow like
- 18:14Speaker 1: bring those things together. It's ridiculous. He was buying a car.
- 18:18Speaker 1: I think the one where Jerry goes to Putty to
- 18:21Speaker 1: get his car repaired is the is the uh.
- 18:24Speaker 2: The swirl episode, the counterclock the clockwise swirl, the counterclockwise swirl,
- 18:31Speaker 2: the pussy eating technique. If you remember that episode, you
- 18:37Speaker 2: stole my technique or George George is the one who
- 18:41Speaker 2: does the reverse, the inverse swirl whatever, Oh my god.
- 18:48Speaker 2: And Sidefeld always like they do this thing where they
- 18:50Speaker 2: allude to what they're actually talking about. They don't outright
- 18:53Speaker 2: say it, but everybody knows what they're talking about, which,
- 18:56Speaker 2: of course everybody remembers. The greatest example of that was
- 19:00Speaker 2: the Contest episode, where everybody knows exactly what they're talking about,
- 19:04Speaker 2: even though they don't outright say it that they're all
- 19:06Speaker 2: trying to hold out on masturbating. The Kramer's basically be
- 19:12Speaker 2: in that episode that he sees the naked woman in
- 19:15Speaker 2: the apartment across the street, he walks out of Jerry's apartment,
- 19:18Speaker 2: comes back in, throws the money down.
- 19:21Speaker 1: I'm out. Oh man, it's so good. You skipped the wait,
- 19:27Speaker 1: you skipped the Seinfeld episode. Don't skip any Seinfeld episodes. Man,
- 19:31Speaker 1: every single one is like pretty good, except like the
- 19:35Speaker 1: very beginning, there were some episodes that were kind of lackluster,
- 19:37Speaker 1: and then everybody thinks the last season was bad. It's not.
- 19:41Speaker 1: It's just the finale is bad, but like all the
- 19:44Speaker 1: episodes leading up to it are pretty funny. Actually, there's
- 19:47Speaker 1: some bangers in the final season. So the final season
- 19:51Speaker 1: gets a bad rap just because the finale was bad.
- 19:54Speaker 1: There are definitely some good episodes there. All right, let's
- 19:57Speaker 1: get into the evening slate here. I don't want to
- 19:59Speaker 1: talk about everyone one of these games. But let me
- 20:01Speaker 1: see here, where do we go? Where do we go
- 20:05Speaker 1: from here? Let me see we'll do New York in Montreal? Here,
- 20:11Speaker 1: Rangers and Canadians. I mean, it's a kind of a
- 20:13Speaker 1: big game. Rangers three losses in a row to good
- 20:16Speaker 1: teams Washington, Edmonton and Toronto. Toronto went into overtime. Rangers
- 20:22Speaker 1: off to kind of a lackluster start year. They're gonna
- 20:26Speaker 1: want to get something done here, so maybe it's a
- 20:29Speaker 1: spot where maybe you want to look for them to
- 20:31Speaker 1: bounce back when. I don't know, because an overtime game
- 20:33Speaker 1: against Toronto's a pretty difficult game. Montreal just kind of
- 20:37Speaker 1: rolling right now, though their wins are kind of against
- 20:40Speaker 1: bad opponents though. I mean, their best win was at Detroit,
- 20:43Speaker 1: and it was Detroit's actually their only loss Detroit so far,
- 20:48Speaker 1: so I don't know if Detroit is as good as
- 20:50Speaker 1: they look, but that was Montreal's best win so far,
- 20:52Speaker 1: I would say, and that was with their backup goalie
- 20:54Speaker 1: in net DoBeS however you pronounce his name. Monteba should
- 20:58Speaker 1: be back in net here for them. I don't know
- 21:00Speaker 1: if it's gonna be just Sterkin for the Rangers or not.
- 21:03Speaker 1: I guess we could see it looks like it's slated
- 21:08Speaker 1: to be just starking, but not confirmed. Montreal coming off
- 21:12Speaker 1: back to back overtime games themselves, but against bad teams.
- 21:15Speaker 1: So both teams coming off overtime games. What do you
- 21:18Speaker 1: do with this game? I'm just talking about it because
- 21:20Speaker 1: it's a big game on tap here. Rangers are taking
- 21:23Speaker 1: the money fifty five percent tickets, eighty one percent of
- 21:25Speaker 1: the cash, Montreal down for minus one nineteen to minus
- 21:27Speaker 1: one fifteen on the money line. I don't really have
- 21:30Speaker 1: a strong reason to disagree with the Rangers side and
- 21:33Speaker 1: that one. I think they kind of need the game
- 21:34Speaker 1: more at this point. Montreal, based on the record, maybe
- 21:38Speaker 1: looks a little bit better than they actually are, not
- 21:41Speaker 1: of difficult schedule for them so far, whereas the Rangers
- 21:44Speaker 1: have had a more difficult schedule, so they're more battle
- 21:47Speaker 1: tested and their record makes them look worse than they
- 21:49Speaker 1: actually are. So yeah, I mean maybe I will slightly
- 21:52Speaker 1: lean to the Rangers in that one. What else do
- 21:55Speaker 1: we want to talk about here? I'm gonna have a
- 21:57Speaker 1: play in these next two games, Tampa and dal those
- 22:00Speaker 1: two games, I'll talk you to about my Boston Bruins,
- 22:03Speaker 1: just because I always do, because this tradition. But I
- 22:07Speaker 1: don't think they're gonna win against Colorado. Colorado's off to
- 22:10Speaker 1: a good start four to zero to one, obviously. Their
- 22:12Speaker 1: only loss is a shootout loss on the at home
- 22:15Speaker 1: against Dallas, which we lost that game on the show.
- 22:18Speaker 1: We had Colorado in that game. Good start for Colorado, though,
- 22:22Speaker 1: besides the Dallas game, the best opponent that they've faced.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Their biggest win was at LA, so they've faced a
- 22:28Speaker 1: somewhat weak slate of opponents as well. Facing the Bruins here,
- 22:33Speaker 1: Colorado's actually returning home from Buffalo and Columbus, so it's
- 22:37Speaker 1: actually a return home spot for Colorado, even though they
- 22:39Speaker 1: weren't on the road for that long. But I do
- 22:41Speaker 1: talk about that when a team goes on the road,
- 22:43Speaker 1: they come back home, they have stuff to do back
- 22:46Speaker 1: a home kind of get distracted a little bit. Boston.
- 22:49Speaker 1: I know they're a big name team though, and they
- 22:51Speaker 1: do have a winning records still, so maybe they won't
- 22:53Speaker 1: totally overlook the Bruins here. And it wasn't the longest
- 22:56Speaker 1: of road trips either. Bruins have lost two games in
- 22:59Speaker 1: a row now against good teams Tampa and Vegas. I mean,
- 23:05Speaker 1: I don't know what else I was gonna say about that,
- 23:07Speaker 1: but they're coming out of a difficult game against Vegas. Man,
- 23:10Speaker 1: the Bruins were able to cover the puck line there
- 23:13Speaker 1: for that lean that I gave on on the show
- 23:15Speaker 1: didn't win. Now they have to go into elevation two
- 23:17Speaker 1: days later. It's not the easiest spot for the Bruins either.
- 23:21Speaker 1: The money is actually coming in on the Bruins side, though,
- 23:24Speaker 1: as far as I saw, Colorado went up for minus
- 23:27Speaker 1: two thirty five to minus two fifty two. Bruins getting
- 23:30Speaker 1: massively disrespected in the market. They're still considered to be
- 23:33Speaker 1: one of the worst teams in hockey, which I don't
- 23:37Speaker 1: know if they are. I kind of think they might
- 23:38Speaker 1: be more of a mediocre team. Colorado is one of
- 23:42Speaker 1: the best teams. Seventy five tickets on them. Eighty percent
- 23:45Speaker 1: of the cash coming in on Boston though, so the
- 23:48Speaker 1: the professional money has been coming in on Boston in
- 23:50Speaker 1: some of these games, maybe thinking the Bruins are maybe
- 23:53Speaker 1: a little bit underrated right now. Maybe that's the case.
- 23:56Speaker 1: So that is the way that the money's coming in
- 23:58Speaker 1: on that one. We will see what happens. Last season
- 24:02Speaker 1: is some of the most memorable. Last season has the
- 24:04Speaker 1: the Frogger episode I think right, and the the cal
- 24:08Speaker 1: Zone episode might be in it too. I don't know.
- 24:10Speaker 1: I forget Carolina at LA. This was almost to play
- 24:14Speaker 1: for me. I lean to l A in this one.
- 24:17Speaker 1: Carolina off to a really good start four and zho
- 24:20Speaker 1: no losses, no overtime losses. Yet they're backup goalie. By
- 24:24Speaker 1: the way, his name Bussy, which is which is great.
- 24:28Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta slip the puck in through the
- 24:32Speaker 1: Bussy man, That's what you gotta do. Anderson is their
- 24:35Speaker 1: main goalie though, and he's probably gonna be in net
- 24:37Speaker 1: again in this one. But Carolina hasn't had a difficult
- 24:40Speaker 1: schedule so far. Their best win is against New Jersey
- 24:43Speaker 1: and then since then they've only played Philadelphia, San Jose
- 24:46Speaker 1: and Anaheim, not good teams. They're in the middle of
- 24:48Speaker 1: a road trip here, but they're only going from Anaheim
- 24:50Speaker 1: to LA so it is a short road trip leg here,
- 24:53Speaker 1: though they do a Vegas and Colorado coming up after this,
- 24:56Speaker 1: and Dallas, so the least of those remains games here
- 25:00Speaker 1: as really this LA one, as the next three opponents
- 25:03Speaker 1: they have are all better opponents than the Kings, even
- 25:06Speaker 1: though I think the Kings are pretty good and they
- 25:08Speaker 1: were really good at home last year. But the Kings
- 25:09Speaker 1: are off to not a very good start. Won three
- 25:12Speaker 1: to one here, but they faced a much more difficult schedule.
- 25:15Speaker 1: They faced Colorado Vegas, winning that one in a shootout,
- 25:19Speaker 1: Winnipeg Minnesota. Those three games all on the road, losing
- 25:22Speaker 1: in a shootout there, and then they had their worst
- 25:25Speaker 1: loss of the season last time out against Pittsburgh. That
- 25:27Speaker 1: was with their backup goalie in net Forsburg. So and
- 25:33Speaker 1: that loss, by the way, was not what it looked like.
- 25:35Speaker 1: If you dig into the box score here, LA outshot
- 25:39Speaker 1: Pittsburgh in the game, had more shots. They had way
- 25:42Speaker 1: more hits, twenty three to thirteen. They had sixty one
- 25:44Speaker 1: percent of the faceoffs. How did they lose the game?
- 25:47Speaker 1: I don't know, man. They give them a shorthanded goal
- 25:49Speaker 1: that gave up the lead and then they gave it
- 25:51Speaker 1: an empty net at the end. So LA played a
- 25:54Speaker 1: lot better in that game than it looked on the score.
- 25:57Speaker 1: And they were very good at home last year. So
- 25:58Speaker 1: you know what, let's add a play here on the fly.
- 26:02Speaker 1: You know what I'm feeling it. I like LA and
- 26:04Speaker 1: this one, this was the first one that I had
- 26:06Speaker 1: left off my card. But the schedule, like the scheduling
- 26:10Speaker 1: that we've had so far, I mean, yeah, Carolina is
- 26:12Speaker 1: definitely good and they are the better of these two teams.
- 26:14Speaker 1: But LA is very battle tested, much much more difficult
- 26:18Speaker 1: schedules so far, and that last game they played was
- 26:20Speaker 1: just I mean, they shouldn't have lost that game based
- 26:23Speaker 1: on what happened in the game. Statistically, Uh, looking at this, Carolina,
- 26:28Speaker 1: they're out for minus one twenty six to one, but
- 26:30Speaker 1: they're public seventy eight percent of tickets, only sixty nine
- 26:34Speaker 1: percent of the cash. Nice, so the cash looks like
- 26:39Speaker 1: it is coming in against Carolina. I think we're gonna
- 26:40Speaker 1: get a pretty decent underdog price here. Let me look
- 26:43Speaker 1: real quick on this. So we're gonna wind up with
- 26:45Speaker 1: three okey plays. I'm just not I'm not able to
- 26:49Speaker 1: control myself here. I guess man, let me see we
- 26:53Speaker 1: can get plus one twenty six on it. I mean
- 26:55Speaker 1: it's an underdog price. Yeah, why not, let's fucking do it.
- 26:59Speaker 1: Fire on it. La Kings will be an extra play
- 27:02Speaker 1: here for you at plus one twenty six. There you go.
- 27:06Speaker 1: I kind of like it will take LA and then
- 27:11Speaker 1: let's go to Even though I do think generally Carolina
- 27:15Speaker 1: is the better team, the Osnergers are telling you that.
- 27:18Speaker 1: And then that's about it. I mean, we'll actually Vegas.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Calgary kind of interesting because they think Vegas. I don't
- 27:26Speaker 1: necessarily love the spot that Vegas is in. They don't
- 27:28Speaker 1: have a regulation loss yet they just beat Boston, which
- 27:32Speaker 1: I think Boston still carries a lot of weight behind
- 27:34Speaker 1: their name. Vegas you Schmidt in those two games, so
- 27:37Speaker 1: I don't know if Aiden Hill is hurt or what's
- 27:39Speaker 1: going on there. So I don't know what's going on
- 27:41Speaker 1: with Vegas's goaltending situation of I don't really love either
- 27:44Speaker 1: of those goalies, to be honest. They got this bad
- 27:46Speaker 1: Calgary team coming in. But Vegas did just beat Calgary
- 27:49Speaker 1: on the fourteenth in Calgary. So it's a quick road
- 27:52Speaker 1: revenge spot, which is something that I look for in hockey.
- 27:55Speaker 1: When a team just lost on their whole ice to
- 27:58Speaker 1: a team and then they get to go repay the
- 28:00Speaker 1: favor to that team. You want to look to that
- 28:03Speaker 1: road team and that road reversal revenge angle when it's
- 28:05Speaker 1: a really quick road revenge spot like this. So that's
- 28:08Speaker 1: a reason to look for Calgary here, and Vegas is
- 28:11Speaker 1: also potentially looking ahead to facing Carolina, Florida, Tampa Bay, Carolina, Colorado, Detroit,
- 28:16Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. All their upcoming opponents are all opponents that
- 28:20Speaker 1: are I think just better opponents than Calgary is, so
- 28:24Speaker 1: they might overlook Calgary in this one. So I would
- 28:28Speaker 1: lean to Calgary in this game. I don't think I
- 28:30Speaker 1: could quite stomach it. Calgary coming off a real ugly
- 28:33Speaker 1: loss against Utah, They've had two days off, and they
- 28:36Speaker 1: probably will have Wolf back in net here because they've
- 28:38Speaker 1: had multiple days off here, so you will get that.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Calgary is not one since their opener, which was a
- 28:44Speaker 1: big win at Edmonton, which we got right on the show. Yeah,
- 28:47Speaker 1: I would lean to Calgary in this one. Vegas is
- 28:50Speaker 1: up for minus two twenty five to minus two thirty.
- 28:52Speaker 1: I would grab Calgary on the puck line or something
- 28:54Speaker 1: if I was gonna play that game. I won't quite
- 28:58Speaker 1: get there with that one, but that is that I would. Yeah,
- 29:01Speaker 1: I would lean that way. I think the road revenge
- 29:03Speaker 1: angle is solid. And then Pittsburgh, by the way, as
- 29:06Speaker 1: I just pointed out that game against LA where Pittsburgh
- 29:08Speaker 1: won with shorthanded goal and then empty net goal at
- 29:11Speaker 1: the end, they got outplayed by LA. So I don't
- 29:13Speaker 1: think Pittsburgh is in a very good spot. They're not
- 29:15Speaker 1: that good of a team. People might still think they're
- 29:18Speaker 1: kind of good to be. Oh, Sidney Crosby scored that
- 29:20Speaker 1: empty net goal. Man, I don't know. I mean, he's
- 29:23Speaker 1: ridiculously old. Now, maybe this is the spot where San
- 29:27Speaker 1: Jose will get their first win. Man, I'm usually good
- 29:30Speaker 1: at calling those like streak busters. Maybe it'll be here
- 29:34Speaker 1: because that Pittsburgh win over LA was kind of bullshit,
- 29:38Speaker 1: and it was a big win over an LA team
- 29:40Speaker 1: that was pretty good last year. San Jose still winless,
- 29:43Speaker 1: although two of their losses are an overtime. They're coming
- 29:45Speaker 1: off an ugly loss against Utah, but that was yesterday,
- 29:48Speaker 1: So San Jose is on a back to back, so
- 29:51Speaker 1: that's a little bit ugly as far as that's concerned.
- 29:54Speaker 1: They're on the back to back, So I don't know
- 29:57Speaker 1: if I can quite get there with San Jose. I
- 29:59Speaker 1: might slightly lean that way. The money's coming in on
- 30:01Speaker 1: Pittsburgh up for minus one thirty five to minus one
- 30:04Speaker 1: forty five, fifty percent of tickets, sixty five percent of
- 30:07Speaker 1: the cash on Pittsburgh, So the money's coming on in Pittsburgh.
- 30:10Speaker 1: I don't really agree with it. I would not be
- 30:13Speaker 1: shocked if San Jose actually finally gets a win here,
- 30:16Speaker 1: but that remains to be seen. I don't want to
- 30:18Speaker 1: play on San Jose on a back to back, though.
- 30:21Speaker 1: A couple of teams are on back to backs today,
- 30:23Speaker 1: which are Tampa Bay, Minnesota, and San Jose. I think
- 30:28Speaker 1: those three teams are on back to backs today. I
- 30:31Speaker 1: didn't talk about Minnesota. They are on a back to back,
- 30:33Speaker 1: if you want me to mention that briefly. Philadelphia coming
- 30:36Speaker 1: off that loss that we got correct on the show
- 30:38Speaker 1: with Winnipeg. Philadelphia was coming off that big win over Florida.
- 30:42Speaker 1: I think Philadelphia is a pretty bad team. They are
- 30:45Speaker 1: staying at home. Maybe they'll try to bounce back after
- 30:48Speaker 1: that win over winnip that loss to Winnipeg. Excuse me.
- 30:51Speaker 1: Minnesota coming off some ugly losses to Dallas and Washington though,
- 30:55Speaker 1: but those are good teams Dallas and Washington, so you
- 30:57Speaker 1: can't really blame Minnesota for losing those. I think Minneso
- 31:00Speaker 1: is just kind of a mediocre team. But Minnesota on
- 31:03Speaker 1: the back to back does make it a bit difficult
- 31:05Speaker 1: for them. The money's coming in on the Flyers in
- 31:07Speaker 1: that game, up for minus one of five to minus
- 31:09Speaker 1: one thirteen fifty percent of tickets on Minnesota fifty eight
- 31:12Speaker 1: percent of the cash on Philadelphia. I do think the
- 31:15Speaker 1: scheduling spot is better for Philadelphia as far as the
- 31:18Speaker 1: fact that they have rest coming into that game, so
- 31:21Speaker 1: they're the more rested teams. So that, basically, I think
- 31:23Speaker 1: is why for the most part, the money's coming in
- 31:26Speaker 1: on them. Other than I think Minnesota just was very
- 31:28Speaker 1: overrated last year and maybe they will continue to be
- 31:32Speaker 1: this year. Jeffrey, you like Wolf there. I forget what
- 31:36Speaker 1: his first name is. Yeah, Wolf, I mean his name
- 31:39Speaker 1: just sounds kind of ferocious. Let's get into the rest
- 31:43Speaker 1: of my best bets here, and then I'll reiterate my
- 31:45Speaker 1: college ones and then we'll get out of here. Let's
- 31:48Speaker 1: do it, man, all right. So I already mentioned the
- 31:53Speaker 1: first one, which was the LA Kings at plus one
- 31:55Speaker 1: twenty six. We're also gonna go with the Saint Louis
- 31:58Speaker 1: Blues plus one of I know we're fading Dallas. I
- 32:01Speaker 1: know him own too, fading Dallas so far, but I'm
- 32:04Speaker 1: gonna do it again here. We're gonna have both teams
- 32:07Speaker 1: with their starting goalies in net here. I think almost
- 32:09Speaker 1: definitively we're gonna have Ottinger for Dallas. I don't see
- 32:12Speaker 1: it here, but I think it's almost definitive that we're
- 32:14Speaker 1: gonna have Ottinger for Dallas and we're gonna have Bennington
- 32:19Speaker 1: for Saint Louis here. Uh, Dallas took their first loss
- 32:23Speaker 1: of the season. Yes, it was with de Smith and
- 32:25Speaker 1: Net and not Ottinger. So they are undefeated with Ottinger
- 32:28Speaker 1: and Net. They've faced a somewhat difficult schedule so far.
- 32:31Speaker 1: I get all that, but they're going back out on
- 32:33Speaker 1: the road here, and on the road they've only won
- 32:36Speaker 1: each game by one goal, so the road opponents have
- 32:38Speaker 1: competed against some of the Winnipeg in Colorado, both better
- 32:42Speaker 1: than Saint Louis. But Saint Louis isn't bad. I mean,
- 32:44Speaker 1: they're still a competitive team. The fact that Dallas just
- 32:47Speaker 1: took their first loss, I think that can kind of
- 32:49Speaker 1: result in a bit of a hangover spot and they
- 32:51Speaker 1: have to take this one trip up to Saint Louis.
- 32:53Speaker 1: These one game road trips are usually kind of weird.
- 32:56Speaker 1: It's either like you're like it seems to be like
- 32:59Speaker 1: either your supremely focused or you're just not focused at all.
- 33:03Speaker 1: I know they don't have a big game up next
- 33:04Speaker 1: against Columbus, but I think that first loss can put
- 33:07Speaker 1: them in a hangover spot, and I think Saint Louis
- 33:10Speaker 1: is gonna be in a very, very foul mood here.
- 33:13Speaker 1: I think they might be undervalued a little bit here.
- 33:16Speaker 1: Saint Louis did beat Vancouver, which I do kind of
- 33:18Speaker 1: worry about that because people might say, oh, Saint Louis
- 33:21Speaker 1: beat Vancouver, who beat Dallas. That means Saint Louis should
- 33:24Speaker 1: be able to beat Dallas here. I don't like that
- 33:26Speaker 1: line of handicapping, but I don't just immediately, you know,
- 33:30Speaker 1: fade that sentiment every time Saint Louis said two days
- 33:33Speaker 1: off with no travels. They have the much better rest
- 33:35Speaker 1: and travels spot here. And they're coming off a horrendous loss.
- 33:39Speaker 1: They lost eight to three at home to Chicago. But
- 33:42Speaker 1: remember that was a bad spot. I talked about that
- 33:45Speaker 1: Saint Louis was returning home from a bit of a
- 33:47Speaker 1: road trip there and they had this Dallas game up next,
- 33:50Speaker 1: so I thought they were gonna get caught in kind
- 33:51Speaker 1: of a sandwich spot. They did. They had Hoffer in net,
- 33:55Speaker 1: which is their lesser goalie, so they will have Bennington
- 33:58Speaker 1: back in net here. I know Bennington was good against
- 34:00Speaker 1: Minnesota in his first game. Bennington, he's a roller coaster man.
- 34:04Speaker 1: He's either really good or terrible basically, So we'll see
- 34:08Speaker 1: which Bennington we get here. But I think it's a
- 34:11Speaker 1: Saint Louis spot. They have the better rest scenario. They're
- 34:13Speaker 1: in the better spot scheduling wise. Just I mean, that
- 34:17Speaker 1: is such an ugly loss, losing giving up eight goals
- 34:20Speaker 1: at home to Chicago. You know they got to bounce
- 34:22Speaker 1: back from that. Dallas looks too easy to take Dallas.
- 34:26Speaker 1: They're down for minus one thirty five to minus win eighteen.
- 34:28Speaker 1: It's basically like a pick the winner price, so you know,
- 34:31Speaker 1: public gets if the public gets involved here, they're only
- 34:33Speaker 1: going to be taking Dallas sixty seven percent of tickets,
- 34:36Speaker 1: only fifty six percent of the cash on Dallas, so
- 34:40Speaker 1: they're public with less than the money on them. We'll
- 34:42Speaker 1: roll with Saint Louis in that one, and then we
- 34:45Speaker 1: got one more here, best bets hell, yeah, hopefully these
- 34:49Speaker 1: aren't shitty bets. And then last one, we're going back
- 34:51Speaker 1: to the b Jys, the Columbus Blue Jackets, So we
- 34:54Speaker 1: got Blues and Blue Jackets, Blues Clues. I know. I
- 35:00Speaker 1: we also lost going with the Blue Jackets the last
- 35:02Speaker 1: time out, and I think that was kind of a
- 35:03Speaker 1: bullshit loss. But we're gonna do it. We're fading Tampa Bay.
- 35:06Speaker 1: They're playing on the second of a back to back,
- 35:09Speaker 1: which I don't think is a very good spot. The
- 35:11Speaker 1: money is saying Columbus. It flipped Columbus from one plus
- 35:15Speaker 1: one oh two dog to a minus one twelve favorite
- 35:18Speaker 1: best I saw it was minus one fifteen out there,
- 35:20Speaker 1: but it's basically a pick the winner price, so I
- 35:22Speaker 1: would still go with it. Seventy percent of the cash
- 35:25Speaker 1: on Columbus with sixty percent of the tickets on Tampa Bay,
- 35:28Speaker 1: so the money, the money's coming in on a Columbus.
- 35:30Speaker 1: Even though the public wants Tampa Bay. The public still
- 35:33Speaker 1: considers Tampa Bay to be a good team, and they're right.
- 35:36Speaker 1: Tampa Bay is a good team despite their kind of
- 35:40Speaker 1: if we start to the season, but Columbus has a
- 35:42Speaker 1: terrible record so far. Columbus has lost both of their
- 35:45Speaker 1: home games in regulation so far, so nobody's gonna want
- 35:48Speaker 1: anything to do with Columbus here, but I'm gonna do it.
- 35:52Speaker 1: Tampa Bay coming into this game, losing two straight overtime
- 35:58Speaker 1: games on the road, and now they're playing a third straight,
- 36:00Speaker 1: a fourth straight road game, and they're doing that in
- 36:03Speaker 1: a span of what is that six days? They're playing four. Yeah,
- 36:07Speaker 1: they played a back to back, had a day off,
- 36:09Speaker 1: and then another back to back, so they're playing or
- 36:12Speaker 1: had two days off excuse me, and then another back
- 36:14Speaker 1: to back. So they're playing four games at six days,
- 36:17Speaker 1: two back to backs. It's kind of ridiculous, man. And
- 36:20Speaker 1: the last two of those games, including yesterday, were overtime games.
- 36:24Speaker 1: So this is a bad rest spot for Tampa Bay. Man.
- 36:27Speaker 1: They don't have a look ahead. They have a lot
- 36:28Speaker 1: of days off after this before they play Chicago though,
- 36:31Speaker 1: so maybe they're looking a little bit ahead to that
- 36:33Speaker 1: semi by there where they have like four days off
- 36:36Speaker 1: after this. I think it's a bad spot for them.
- 36:39Speaker 1: Don't know what they were gonna do it inn now, Well,
- 36:40Speaker 1: it looks like they're going with probably Johansson a net,
- 36:43Speaker 1: so they're gonna be using their worst goalie here as
- 36:45Speaker 1: Vassilevsky as their starting goal although hilariously, Johansson was the
- 36:51Speaker 1: goalie and their only win against Boston. But you remember
- 36:54Speaker 1: I gave out Tampa as a play in that game.
- 36:56Speaker 1: I thought Tampa was in a good spot to get
- 36:58Speaker 1: that win. It was that like record disparity where Tampa
- 37:02Speaker 1: was actually the better team despite having the worst record.
- 37:04Speaker 1: They got the job done. They didn't cover on the
- 37:06Speaker 1: puck line, though, which I should have gone with Tampa regulation.
- 37:09Speaker 1: Then it would have been a winner on the whole
- 37:12Speaker 1: bet there. Hilariously, Yeah, Johansson was the goalie in that one,
- 37:16Speaker 1: but it's not exactly like he was amazing in the game.
- 37:19Speaker 1: He's still the lesser goalie between him and vest Levski,
- 37:22Speaker 1: so you're gonna get Johansson in that here. It's a
- 37:24Speaker 1: bad rest spot for Tampa Bay. I don't like it
- 37:27Speaker 1: Columbus coming in. I think Columbus is gonna be the
- 37:31Speaker 1: somewhat more motivated team here man. I mean, they've lost
- 37:33Speaker 1: both games at home so far, including losing to Colorado
- 37:36Speaker 1: a couple of days ago, four to one. They're only
- 37:40Speaker 1: playing their third game over the same span of time
- 37:42Speaker 1: that Tampa Bay is playing their fourth, so Columbus is
- 37:47Speaker 1: much more rested. They had multiple days off before that
- 37:49Speaker 1: Colorado game. They lost pretty badly in that Colorado game.
- 37:52Speaker 1: It looks like They're slated to have Jet Grieves as
- 37:55Speaker 1: they're starting goalie this time. Jet ridiculous name. They're two
- 38:01Speaker 1: goalies are Jet and Elvis. They both sound like rock
- 38:04Speaker 1: stars man from like the sixties. I don't really care
- 38:08Speaker 1: which goalie is, to be honest, for Columbus, I think
- 38:10Speaker 1: they're both somewhat comparable. They're not really either of Neither
- 38:13Speaker 1: of them are really that good. Elvis murz Lickens played
- 38:17Speaker 1: in their last game. It might be Grieves here. I
- 38:19Speaker 1: just don't think it matters that much. I think it's
- 38:21Speaker 1: a better spot for Colorado to bounce back here. They're
- 38:24Speaker 1: not gonna overlook anybody where. They're sitting at one and three. Yeah,
- 38:26Speaker 1: they have Dallas next, but Tampa is still a pretty
- 38:29Speaker 1: good team, big name teams, big name team for the
- 38:32Speaker 1: most part, coming into their house. We're gonna go with
- 38:35Speaker 1: Columbus in that one, and that's gonna be it. Man.
- 38:38Speaker 1: Those are the plays. Hopefully, hopefully you guys like them. Yeah,
- 38:45Speaker 1: the Blues, Clues, Blues Jews, whatever. Man, the Blue Jackets
- 38:49Speaker 1: seems shaky. They always seem shaky. I got a lot
- 38:53Speaker 1: of wins with the Blue Jackets last year. They were
- 38:55Speaker 1: like my h they were that like undervalue team that
- 38:59Speaker 1: when you pick the right spots of the Blue Jackets.
- 39:01Speaker 1: Last year, they pulled off some like crazy upsets last year.
- 39:05Speaker 1: So I like it. Florida Buffalo, I mean in what way,
- 39:11Speaker 1: I don't know. I slightly lean to a Buffalo in
- 39:14Speaker 1: that one. Parlay Buffalo and Columbus. Hell, no, I'm not
- 39:17Speaker 1: gonna parlay anything. Everything is a straight bet for me.
- 39:21Speaker 1: I think parlays that you just don't get good enough
- 39:23Speaker 1: odds on the parlays. Man, if you want to do
- 39:25Speaker 1: it for small amounts of money, do it like for
- 39:28Speaker 1: fun and whatever. Yeah, I mean do it. But like
- 39:32Speaker 1: I said, like I'm about like the grind and actually
- 39:34Speaker 1: trying to like profit long term. So it's all straight bets.
- 39:37Speaker 1: And then that way, if you you know, if you
- 39:40Speaker 1: lose one of your bets out of five or whatever,
- 39:42Speaker 1: then your whole bet doesn't go down, you know what
- 39:44Speaker 1: I mean. You'll have a four and one day and
- 39:46Speaker 1: you'll have a huge day if you go four and
- 39:47Speaker 1: one straight betting everything. But if you parlay at all
- 39:50Speaker 1: five of those, you'd lose the parlay, you know what
- 39:52Speaker 1: I mean. It's just kind of ridiculous. Shaky home dogs
- 39:56Speaker 1: facing struggling great teams. Yeah, I mean, I mean that's true.
- 40:01Speaker 1: It's more about the spot though. I think Tampa's in
- 40:04Speaker 1: like a really really bad spot, especially because of the
- 40:06Speaker 1: back to back, worse than the spot that Florida's. And
- 40:09Speaker 1: so that is what I'm going with. And then if
- 40:11Speaker 1: you miss my college football show, we have Central Michigan
- 40:14Speaker 1: plus three and a half, Purdue plus three, Kentucky plus
- 40:18Speaker 1: twelve and a half, and Syracuse plus ten, which I
- 40:22Speaker 1: think it's at nine and a half. Now I would
- 40:23Speaker 1: still play it at nine and a half probably, but
- 40:25Speaker 1: maybe for a smaller amount of money. Let me just see,
- 40:30Speaker 1: so Central Michigan, I mean they're still getting the money there,
- 40:32Speaker 1: they have more of the cash percentage. That's still looking
- 40:34Speaker 1: pretty good. The three and a half still out there.
- 40:36Speaker 1: Purdue looks like they're still taking the money both of
- 40:39Speaker 1: those games with low totals too, So the money looks
- 40:42Speaker 1: like it is still agreeing. And yeah, I know you're
- 40:44Speaker 1: seeing like a more public ticket percentage on those two
- 40:47Speaker 1: sides too, But I don't think the public is really
- 40:49Speaker 1: playing those games, which I explained last night. Public is
- 40:52Speaker 1: not going to be playing one of these mac games
- 40:54Speaker 1: on a fully loaded Saturday college football slate with a
- 40:57Speaker 1: lot of huge games, They're not going to be putting
- 40:58Speaker 1: money on a Mac game and probably not on per
- 41:01Speaker 1: Due Northwestern either, So I think really what you're seeing
- 41:04Speaker 1: is a lot of those tickets are actually professional tickets
- 41:07Speaker 1: in these cases, and you still see more of the
- 41:09Speaker 1: cash on those sides, So that is the indicator that
- 41:11Speaker 1: I think those are more professional sides. For some reason,
- 41:15Speaker 1: it looks like Texas is getting more of the money
- 41:17Speaker 1: right now, but they're definitely a public side because there
- 41:20Speaker 1: are more public teams, so I think there was more
- 41:22Speaker 1: public involvement in this one. And this is an extremely
- 41:24Speaker 1: low total too, so I'm fine with them in Kentucky
- 41:28Speaker 1: plus the points there. I think the spot is very
- 41:30Speaker 1: bad for Texas and it's good for Kentucky, So I
- 41:34Speaker 1: mean those are all spot plays too. I pick good
- 41:36Speaker 1: spots in my opinion. And then the cash percentage is
- 41:38Speaker 1: way on the Syracuse side. It looks like a pros
- 41:41Speaker 1: versus Joe's scenario between Pitt and Syracuse there, so that's
- 41:44Speaker 1: still looking pretty good as well. That's gonna do it, man,
- 41:47Speaker 1: Those are the plays. Thanks for hanging out, everybody. I
- 41:50Speaker 1: appreciate it. Everybody. Charles Jeffrey readhearted dirty Sock? Who else
- 41:57Speaker 1: is in the chat? Is at it? Did I get
- 41:58Speaker 1: everybody this morning? I don't even know dirty Sock. Was
- 42:01Speaker 1: he even in here? I think he was? Or no,
- 42:02Speaker 1: I think he just commented on my video from last night.
- 42:05Speaker 1: That's gonna do it. Though. Hopefully I keep this going
- 42:08Speaker 1: and don't let you down. Man. We've had very few
- 42:11Speaker 1: losing days over the last like three weeks. Man, I
- 42:13Speaker 1: think only two or three over the last few weeks,
- 42:16Speaker 1: which is quite good. We've had some days where I
- 42:19Speaker 1: just didn't have any plays, some that were very small
- 42:22Speaker 1: wins like yesterday, But I'll take that over a losing day.
- 42:25Speaker 1: Obviously it should have been a two and oh day yesterday, which,
- 42:27Speaker 1: if you want to hear my talk about that, I
- 42:29Speaker 1: did talk about it on the Football Show last night.
- 42:32Speaker 1: But Chicago Blackhawks, they should have won the game last night.
- 42:35Speaker 1: We had them as an underdog. So when I play
- 42:37Speaker 1: an underdog, a money line underdog, I play to win
- 42:40Speaker 1: the same amount that I would put play a like
- 42:42Speaker 1: minus one ten bets. You're putting less money on it
- 42:46Speaker 1: to win the same amounts. So we lost on an
- 42:47Speaker 1: underdog play where Chicago blew a two nothing lead in
- 42:50Speaker 1: the game and lost in a shootout, which is just bad.
- 42:54Speaker 1: I mean, it's just kind of bullshit. I think they
- 42:56Speaker 1: should have gotten the win in that one as an underdog.
- 42:59Speaker 1: I mean, you know, oh, you're on the right side
- 43:00Speaker 1: if an underdog plays a game like that, and then
- 43:03Speaker 1: we got the win, the big win on Louisville, outright
- 43:05Speaker 1: win over Miami. The rest tried to help Miami, it
- 43:08Speaker 1: still didn't do it as Miami. Yeah, Carson Beck was
- 43:13Speaker 1: just really bad in the game as far as throwing
- 43:15Speaker 1: four interceptions. I'll take it. We got the win with Louisville.
- 43:19Speaker 1: Louisville probably would have covered anyway despite all those turnovers,
- 43:23Speaker 1: but winning the game outright, I'll take it. Man. So
- 43:27Speaker 1: I with those plays when you have a big underdog.
- 43:30Speaker 1: So when you have a big underdog like we have
- 43:32Speaker 1: with these football players, I recommend putting like ninety seven
- 43:35Speaker 1: percent of the bet on the spread and like three
- 43:39Speaker 1: percent of the bet on the money line. With some
- 43:41Speaker 1: of those bigger underdogs that are like ten or above,
- 43:44Speaker 1: anywhere between three percent and one percent of the money line,
- 43:46Speaker 1: depending on how big of an underdog they are. Really,
- 43:49Speaker 1: But on the smaller underdogs, I recommend ninety percent of
- 43:51Speaker 1: the bet on the spread and ten percent on the
- 43:54Speaker 1: money line, like with Central Michigan for example today. So
- 43:57Speaker 1: that's how I do it. So Louisville got a nice
- 43:59Speaker 1: little extra ru amount of money on the money line there,
- 44:02Speaker 1: dirty sock. Yeah, he's he's just lost somewhere. Man, like
- 44:06Speaker 1: coming and subscribe, That is true, Yes, sir, thank you, Jeffrey. Yeah,

- 44:23Speaker 1: this year and last year I had bad years doing this,
- 44:25Speaker 1: so twenty two and twenty twenty three are both really good.
