[Music] [Applause] [Music] just don’t want to play for clicks I want to be involved with a great uh leading program that’s going to develop players him leaving Colorado a shot across the bow at Dion I don’t think Dion cares saw Logan Diggs move on from LSU to Old Miss with Lane kein don’t be shocked if you see John Emery potentially maybe at another school maybe like a misstate or even maybe like a Texas A&M inside the transfer portal only on Sports grid quotes coming out about embiid always a warrior you’ll never get him off the court that that just you’re just telling me he’s an injury he’s one slip and fall away from where just not seeing him anymore in this series I would have sat him because there was only one day between the two games it’s two days between games two and games three and it’s two game two days between games three and game four betting above the ram only on Sports Grid it’s smarter to be on Sports grid your 24/7 Sports wagering Network the early line magical and historic season in Lincoln Nebraska continues he is the best player in the NBA but also in the biggest moments where the national media is watching newswire something that we have never seen happen before with one of the iconic coaches in the game forel Coast to Coast the team covers it’s automatic it’s every time not not sometimes it’s every time game time decision is actually far more dangerous from three on the road this year than at home this game here tonight you may want to consider taking as many points as humanly possible ingame live prime time we got not one but two coaches fired systems in place Sports rage late night has let down written all over it it’s going to be hard to match the emotion that they played with the other night it’s smarter to be on Sports grid [Music] welcome man it is a beautiful Saturday here on Sports grid Kevin Walsh with you for Game Time decisions two hours to set it up and knock it down full board two NBA games two NHL games playoff style plus a full Major League Baseball board including the debut of Paul sk’s the potential future Ace of Major League Baseball we’ve got got some action with Paul skes that goes a little bit beyond just today’s game against the Cubs we will get there we will get to Mavs Thunder Celtics Cavs the NHL all of that but we like to start it off with a quick pick and I figured why not get this out of the way probably a loser how could I have confidence betting baseball I don’t know but we’re still going to get up off of the mat here under eight and a half Orioles Diamond Backs that’s the MLB play of the day Nelson against means means excellent in his Lone Start so far this season and I think you’ve got yourselves a bounceback spot for Nelson who’s been a little bit better than that erra right now sitting at a 523 would suggest I’m going to play the under here again we don’t hide from it we don’t run from it we celebrate the wins we acknowledge the losses and the MLB play of the day has been full of losses so if you see this and you love the over I respect it I really do I understand it but also this boat will get turned around believe you me uh andam that’s not the only uh baseball action that I’ve got for today we’re going to go through that full card but I want to start with what is for me uh my favorite game on today’s board and that is Dallas Oklahoma City Mavs Thunder as the Western Conference uh is delivering so far I mean the playoffs the NBA’s been great this second round I knew it was going to be great and it absolutely has been but what we have here is a two and a half point line in favor of the Mavs and it’s really interesting the conversation around this series the word disrespect has been tossed around Mavs opened his series favorites disrespect we see the Thunder move to slight minus 120 favorite still disrespect and I don’t agree I think Oklahoma City is good I’m a thunder believer right relative to some of the uh things that we hear out there about them being an awful one seed no I I think that’s completely mislead however I think the Dallas record perhaps a bit misleading 50 wins is still good but it would be much better have the Mavs been given a full season with their current roster the Mavericks have been as good as any team in the NBA outside of the Boston Celtics since they’ve made their Acquisitions the Mavericks have been great and they now have guys buying in across the board stepping up across the board Dallas back home onlyus 134 to win the series despite being evened up at 1-1 that feels like disrespect Dallas just a two and a half Point favorite for game number three at home that feels like disrespect I think the Mavericks will win the West I am an early Mavs believer run the tape betting Above the Rim and this was not in August now this was in April when the season ended unceremoniously for Luca and Kyrie as people seemingly were certain that that big two would not work out I disagreed we knew the offense would be great Dallas needed to make a move to bring in another star alongside Luca donic ultimately bringing in Kyrie put them in a position where the defense was never going to be good enough and it was atrocious it doesn’t forgive missing the playf and the play in all together that should have never happened but it didn’t mean that the one-w punch was going to be a failure and it’s going very well right now as not only luk has been excellent but Kyrie Irving both sides of the basketball is stepping up for the Mavericks all of a sudden the conversation on Kyrie flipping around and it makes some teams look a little bit silly for passing looking at you Lakers possibly looking at you Miami Heat oh and by the way Kevin Durant maybe it’s your fault huh instead of blaming everybody else I don’t know I don’t know maybe I’m crazy but Kyrie in game two had a a very rare performance nine points no slander all praise 11 assists good defense timely timely execution but I think tonight we see Kyrie Irving step up over 22 and A2 points was my favorite bet Kyrie Irving in a clear and obvious bounceback spot the only time that we’ve seen him go under 20 before game two was in game five against the Clippers came back home and gave you a 30-point performance in a close out and back home is the key all of Kyrie’s best games so far this postseason have happened in Dallas go back to the regular season where Kyrie Irving was averaging over 27 points per game at home so four for me I think what we have is Kyrie stepping up watching that efficiency tick up and he could get going early Kyrie has been very underwhelming scoring the basketball in the first half of games one and game two so don’t be surprised if Kyrie sits at 15 or better in the first half of this game and closes the door with a nice scoring performance here against the Oklahoma City Thunder I think 30 is on the board tonight for Kyrie Irving I think for Oklahoma City they’ll see Jaylen Williams answer the Bel here and go over the 292 points rebounds and assists if you want to just play the rebounds plus assist number for Jaylen Williams I understand that that number is nine and a half last game is the first time all postseason we did not see double digit ra for jayd dub but I want to bring the points into the mix here because the volume is there the efficiency has lacked just a little bit he shot 53% from the floor against New Orleans so far in this series against the Mavs 41% so Jaylen Williams here if I think we’re going to get double digit rebounds plus assists and I think tonight he could really get through those numbers maybe 15 or so truly but I think the points could really break out again I think 25 30 could be a stretch but 25 maybe even 30 for Jay dub tonight 2728 kind of night I think’s absolutely in line here because the efficiency can tip tick up a little bit for their second leading score in Oklahoma City give me Jay Dub here over the 29 and a half points rebounds and assists I do want to stay in the Western Conference we’re going to get to C Celtics in just a little bit certainly but if we take a look at the West now after last night’s win for the Denver Nuggets it’s very interesting to watch how quickly things can change all of a sudden the Denver Nuggets have the second best price to win the West the Denver Nuggets went from nobody can beat this team which was the conversation all the way until they lost to Minnesota in game two throughout the whole regular season they were given the benefit of the doubt against the Lakers despite never looking the level were given the benefit of the doubt heck game number one against Minnesota there were some concerns but people still assumed a full bounce back was on the way they went down 02 and it was nuggets are done nuggets are dead oh this Denver team’s in a world of trouble it could be a sweep and I get that right but all of a sudden all of the Denver trust had gone out the door Denver handling their business in game three was no surprise here been alluding to it all week long throughout the show don’t just get rid of Denver but also now that we’ve seen Denver bounce back it appears this team is one win away in game four from going back to Western Conference favorites and all of a sudden the Forgotten conversations will be the ones that we’ve been having throughout this week about the Panic level in Denver about Denver not having enough Denver can win this series against Minnesota and if they do I will gladly be fading them in the Western Conference finals this team still has very serious issues they aren’t as deep as last year Jamal Murray’s not as good as last year and and sometimes it can be as simple as that so as the Denver Nuggets start to turn that conversation around to some degree we knew that was going to happen but it is now getting turned far too much and I think that is the mistake we’ll talk a little bit about the Celtic situation next we’re live with you on Sports grid [Music] you [Music] every Miss call the entire game whether it’s a charge or a block or a you know a deflection that was wrong or a f should been called that was wasn’t called or vice versa give me a 48 minute report and people that will understand that there’s so many mistakes that the referees make over the course of the game that referees ready folks just don’t decide the outcome betting Above the Rim only on Sports Grid it’s smarter to be on Sports grid your 247 Sports wagering Network the early L magical and historic season in Lincoln Nebraska continues he is the best player in the NBA but also in the biggest moments where the national media is watching newswire something that we have never seen happen before with one of the iconic coaches in the game forel Coast to Coast the team covers it’s automatic it’s every time not not sometimes it’s every time game time decision is actually far more dangerous from three on the road this year than at home this game here tonight you may want to consider taking as many points as humanly possible ingame live prime time we got not one but two coaches fired systems in place Sports rage late has let down written all over it it’s going to be hard to match the emotion that they played with the other night it’s smarter to be on Sports grid [Music] back with you here on Sports grid and we just talked a little about the nuggets and the Timberwolves where that series is now 2-1 same story here Nick’s Pacers if there is cause for concern for New York and Minnesota its recent history suggesting someone is going to blow a 20 lead seven of the last eight seven of the last eight NBA playoffs a team has blown a 20 lead First Step taken for for Indiana and Denver cutting into those series deficits yet the prices are still showing us that there is some hesitation it’s going to be a full March back if you look at the drop that happened for Denver it was significantly more than the drop that happened for Indiana which I thought was interesting and ultimately you have a short number here for the Pacers you could say but not as short when you consider they’re still is Sixpoint favorites in game four maybe it is because the game three number was so strong on Indiana the books were prepared for this move and it was not going to it was not going to change all that much from where things sat before we tipped things off in game number two but now that we sit here to one we are one game away from being even up and one game away from all the sudden the momentum being being on the Pacers side and it is likely going to be up to janen Brunson to slow down that Pacers momentum what’s interesting though is jayen Bronson is actually being met Now by Tyrese Halbert the full series numbers tell the story of Brunson being better and of course Brunson missed a big chunk of basketball in game number two where that 32.7 at night might be closer to 40 a game but halton’s 25 is also I don’t want to say misleading but it doesn’t tell the full story Tyrese halton’s game one performance was abysmal it was a a performance that is not acceptable for a star but he has responded with back-to-back games of 30 plus points you could argue Hal’s two best games of the playoffs have now come in game two and game three and that can be the swing not that he is outplaying Brunson but if he can even meet Bronson it’s a huge swing in this series because the Knicks are at such a depth disadvantage it is not a slight to the Knicks they are the most injured team remaining in the playoffs everybody has stars a little bit banged up halberton Donovan Mitchell LCA donic everybody had Jamaal Murray all these guards are a little bit banged up but so is Brunson it’s that brunson’s missing Randall OG Mitch Rob bogdanovich the list is long and for the Knicks the longer this series goes you imagine at some point it will wear on them because it already has with seeing OG leave this series and I know projecting injuries can be dangerous but when you play everybody 45 plus minutes they are a little bit more expected again it feels like the Knicks despite the 21 series lead are in a dangerous spot the Cavs and the Celtics it’s a little bit of a different tune the Celtics despite dropping game two and what was really embarrassing fashion it’s not described as a dangerous spot it’s just seen as ah Boston playing around and they’ll bounce back no issue eight-point Road favorites minus 350 on this money line still huge favorites to win the series as well as the conference minus money at last look to win in the NBA Championship at some books so for the Boston Celtics is there any reason to panic time will tell had a conversation with somebody who knows this team very well and I said the key for Boston is at no point in any of these series can they Trail don’t go down 1 don’t go down 21 it might sound simple but for Boston as long as they can say hey look we get the next one we’re good and not we need the next one then they are probably good because they are more talented than any team in the East really any team in the league You could argue depends where you land on Oklahoma City it’s just a younger group but ultimately for Boston they are loaded I know they haven’t played their best basketball certainly not number zero sat right there and I know Celtics sus fans are currently in defense mode for JT because he’s being taken to task that’s the level though that’s what you want you want your star player to be held to a higher standard and it’s a standard he’s not even flirted with yet this postseason he was their best guy in game number two it wasn’t enough they were embarrassed so in a way it didn’t move the needle so can Jason Tatum Step Up you hope but 21 and a half a night while you’re getting 30 smooth out of Donovan Mitchell it’s a bad look it just is and listen I’ve talked about this constantly but nobody has cost me more money in my betting life than Jason Tatum gave him a chance in game two and par for the course two made threes in the first half none in the second half it’s what I expect I go into Tatum bets expecting to lose it’s how this has been going for years it was the pandemic I was wearing a mask while I was watching this guy cost me coin it is what it is I get it so I’m not on him tonight does that mean he can finally break three and go off and hit five threes and score 35 points sometimes I think about just keep on playing Tatum unders until he can prove that he can get through me because so far he hasn’t been able to prove that but can he get through the Cavs again the expectation is yes can he be better than Donovan Mitchell seems like the expectation is no I think Donovan Mitchell will continue to step up here tonight but I do think the Cavs offense will struggle a same game parlay but it is not correlated and is why the odds look so favorable 25 plus points for Donovan Mitchell under Cavs team total 106 A2 last game against Boston is the first time the Cavs scored 107 points this postseason Donan Mitchell scoring 25 is something that we can typically Bank on so at minus 105 this is great again it’s not correlated it’s why the odds are so favorable but Donovan Mitchell has made good on that number in the team total going under countless times in this postseason including game number one and the Closeouts against Orlando he scored 50 once and they didn’t get over a 100 points so a little non-correlated same game parlay for Donovan Mitchell to hit 25 with the Cavs under 106 and A2 at minus 105 we’ll talk super stars and hockey next right here on sports [Music] h [Music] every Miss call the entire game whether it’s a charge or a block or a you know a deflection that was wrong or a fellow should call that was wasn’t

written all over it it’s going to be hard to match the emotion that they played with the other night it’s smarter to be on Sports grid [Music] busy morning here on Sports grid we’ll get to the Wells Fargo with Brady Cannon’s help in just a little bit I want to start on the ice last night the Panthers they get downhill and handle their business against the Bruins and they are now the newly minted Stanley Cup favorites and we have seen this be very fluid it does not look like the NBA’s postseason uh Market where Boston has been the favorite for a very long time just the two or three days ago we saw the ABS positioned as cup favorites and I got to tell you I do think Colorado is is being incredibly slighted here in this market now behind the Dallas Stars it just doesn’t make any bit of sense the ABS have stolen home I ice they’ve not lost a home game yet in this series has Dallas looked better because they won game two I it just doesn’t make any sense to me the ABS would have home ice over Edmonton if they get through Dallas which I still think they will so for for me the Stars being booked as cup favorites or the AVS rather I wouldn’t have that much issue with I think the Rangers probably deserve that status knowing they’ll have home ice over the Florida Panthers who are up to one in their series compared to the Rangers at 3 but Colorado at plus 550 it’s now becoming a tempting number clearly you can tell I think they’ll win tonight here against the Stars home favorites sitting at now minus 134 total in that game 6 and a half the hockey playoff action begins with Carolina and New York 5 and a half total canes minus 156 to avoid the sweep let’s talk baseball I mentioned the MLB play of the day already uh that is an under eight and a half runs in Baltimore Arizona I’m also playing five separate money lines in Major League Baseball today as I want to and I know this for some people might sound a little backwards but I fear limiting myself to the singular play is a is not allowing me to get enough of a feel for the league also I’m constantly overthinking things is I was going to just play Azie albz hits runs RBI and he hit a home run in the third inning uh but of course I ultimately did not do that yesterday that’s not the point but I want to get uh some money lines on the board and I thought there were some interesting value spots here so we’ll run through them quickly uh let me get the Phillies on the money line at minus 130 now at last look we don’t have the starting pitch from Miami quite frankly I do not care I think Taiwan Walker can bounce back and this Phillies team is just so RedHot I’m I’m willing to pay that price at minus 130 Javier against scoo ball I’ll take Javier I think you could argue he is better than scoo ball just as good tariq’s actually been a little bit worse so far this season at home and at some point this Astros team can turn a corner because here’s the thing again Javier scoo ball you want to say that’s scoo ball okay fine it’s not a route but the lineup is still in Houston’s favor they stepped up got a huge win last night to now win two in a row after avoiding a sweep at the hands of the New York Yankees I like the Astros at a plus price here plus 114 I’m going to give the white socks a chance at better than plus 140 Kev gets the ball against Tristan McKenzie who’s been nothing to write home about for the Guardians so far and the white socks have already taken two I think that’s why we have some of the value here with the thought of oh no way the White Socks win again yes they can win again at a plus 140 price this Giants number has moved quite a bit it was around minus 102 I think the final number that I was able to get was like plus 11 10 give or take I think it’s climbed even more that’s fine by me uh this Cincinnati Reds team is playing bad baseball they finally stopped the skid but I think the Giants here who are still over 500 at home can get the job done at that plus price and then close it out LA Dodgers minus 142 Paxton’s 4-0 this season he just does enough for the Dodgers and I think the LA offense bouncing back against Waldren feels like a safe bet only scoring one run last game and only three against Miami the game prior I think you see the Dodgers offense carry the load here and Pax didn’t be good enough I’ll take the Dodgers at minus 142 now people might think to themselves hey there’s the Paul skes breakdown don’t you worry about it season long you can watch every single one of those starts 104 and a half under season long strikeouts for Paul skes I get he is amazing he will need to be the best pitcher in baseball right away I think to get through this number and even then that might be enough as I’ve mentioned if I’m playing a pitcher season long prop I’m very likely playing it towards the under if you look right now last two seasons there were nine guys who threw 10 plus strikeouts per nine innings and the year before that there was 10 so if I tell you that SK averages 10ks per nine I think I’m being fair if I tell you only throws five innings pitched per start again based on how baseball is I think I’m being fair you’ll need to start 19 games then to get through this number I don’t think that’s happening paulk’s under the 104 A2 we go to the Wells Fargo next [Music] you [Music] every Miss call the entire game

humanly possible ingame live prime time we got not one but two coaches fired systems in place Sports rage late let down written all over it it’s going to be hard to match the emotion that they played with the other night it’s smarter to be on Sports grid [Music] back right here it is game time decisions we’ve done the NBA we’ve done the NHL we even got the people some baseball we got to get to the golf can’t do without Brady Cannon Brady uh how are you on this lovely Saturday morning ah I’m good Kevin good to be with you once again and uh previewing some very good golf going on here at a very good golf course Big Time tournament the Wells Fargo at Quail Hollow and of course uh we’re just about five or six days away from the PGA Championship so golf is in a good spot right now it certainly is and so is Andrew shley 11 under yeah four up on day and Rory five up on Moore and M and anybody else would be six back or better there are some big names here but Xander’s a big name in his own right I see minus 120 to win this tournament what do you think about shafley right now at 11 under through the first two rounds well I tell you what minus1 is a really good price but do you like to lay minus money at a halfway point you know with all these big names in this field on a very difficult golf course you know it I think it’s a fair price but you know Xander has that reputation we saw it at the Players Championship where Scotty caught him I like Xander and I and I hate to you know have guys have a bad rap of not being able to close but you know it’s not all together are true with Xander I I think he’s had the 54 hole lead like eight times in his career and he’s gotten it done I want to say three times it just hasn’t happened the last few times so you know that sticks with people um but I tell you I I if I was gonna bet somebody right now I don’t think the price is good you know Kevin we never get a good price on Rory maroy but he might be the guy I would bet and and Colin morawa is another one who I don’t think it’s a fantastic price and then on Ben on if I was going to go with a long shot I might take him and I do think we’re getting a very fair price on him but Cha’s number one in Strokes gained approach in this field through two rounds number one in greens and regulation and fifth in scrambling that’s really good the driving accuracy is 50th he’s only hitting half of the fairways but apparently not causing him any problems I just wonder if a hiccup is coming at some point Rory’s playing really well as well third in Strokes gained off the te fourth on approach fourth in Greens in regulation and 38th in putting so you know we always talk about this if that putter gets for Rory today he he could uh be on his way to winning this tournament for a fourth time yeah I think that’s the interesting thing and I feel if if I if I remember correctly the notion of Rory playing well right before uh a major event is not a foreign thing it’s just is Plus 360 four back of a guy of Xander quality a good enough number to play to your point on Saturday because again with with golf is just so fascinating because we deal with such different number I just went through an NBA card baseball card all I just bet a minus 142 on the Dodgers right so plus 360 on Rory mroy it’s a gift but my I think what is if I have to get plus 110 but I’m tied with Xander or one back heading into Sunday Brady the patience on Rory could possibly pay off totally agree you know it kind of feel there’s no wind out there in the course today if Rory again if if the putter goes well for Rory he should have a good day but what’s to say Xander won’t have a good day and that’s why he’s at minus money and and everybody else is not but it just feels to me at some point between now and Sunday there is going to be a hiccup for Xander because he basically hasn’t had one yet and it just seems we’re all too familiar with him having that one hole where he makes double bogey or he makes a couple bogeys and he lets someone through the back door uh again the price is not great on Rory he should probably be closer to five to one just where he sits and where that deficit is and who that guy is that’s ahead of him but you know if if I I’m I’m not involved I’m going to stick with all my pre-tournament stuff I’m looking good on head-to-head matchups I’m looking pretty good on top 20 finishes I don’t think I’m going to probably get an outright winner at this point theala Cory Connors and Ben an are my closest contestants at this point like I say an might be a decent long shot bet maybe you bet him for a placement a top 10 something like that but if I was going to get involved at this point I’d probably go against Xander and I’d look at a couple of big names even though the price is not perfect you’re probably paying a little extra I I I think Rory and morawa could give this guy a run so there is one uh guy I want to ask you about now admittedly I I think all these numbers have to be within the same range if not exact where you know Tia green or where they within the field right on approach but there is a a number here Brady I’ve never seen before and and I’ll explain if you take the guys there’s 12 golfers at four under or better and where they are in Strokes gained huting Rory mroy of those 12 is the second worst at 39th in this field everybody else is top 25 or better and then Cory Connor is dead left so bad in Strokes gained put but how is that possible Bren that this guy’s sitting here four under what is this it’s amazing he’s number one in the field and strokes gained off to T and he’s number two on approach and like you said he’s 68th or something putting I mean my goodness if this guy could putt oh gosh Corey Connors maybe the best ball striker in the world certainly is at times he’s really got to take some time and work on his putting in the offseason or like next week or something because my goodness oh gosh it it’s it’s been a it’s been a label that we’ve put on him but now you know why my goodness he’s dead last in the field and putting and he’s the very best off the tea and with the irons so this is what this is where right I I can see when something stands out but I might not know the appropriate move we talk about putting can be fluky so sometimes you want a guy who’s not running away with the putter to bounce back so again hey Rory could step it up fine right I mean you know a a Jason day but he’s atrocious so I don’t if is that one of those things like oh my gosh if he’s 40th and putting he’s going to win this tournament or no no no that’s so bad we have to stay away from this guy yeah I mean where is he right now he’s seventh yeah I I think maybe you could play him for a top 10 uh certainly top 20 you’re going to pay some money for that but no Corey Connor is not a good putter period so we don’t necessarily expect that to you know go positively to the mean uh he he’s probably going to stay relatively bad with the putter Rory’s a Rory’s a decent putter he’s not great but he could certainly improve Jason day is a great putter he could he could actually improve on where he is already let’s see he’s 22nd putting he’s positive Strokes gained putting but he could get even better Jason day’s won here before too but day is a little bit erratic for me 38th off the te 16th approach 17th in greens and regulation I mentioned 22nd in putting and then this is no surprise number one in Strokes gained around the green he’s got a tremendous short game but just kind of a little all over the place everywhere else yeah um it is it is one of those things that kind of when I pulled it up I I clicked through like a hundred times just to see if I was doing something wrong dead last but but being top 10 right now uh here’s one quick other thing Brady because again uh you and I I believe we we’ll talk again tomorrow and certainly throughout the week to get people set up for a major event um and sometimes there are certain story lines I’ll attach myself to and I am now overwhelmingly fascinated by havland how what is going on here with this guy because we got a Maj your swing why do you make a change after you were the best golfer on the planet at the end of last season I think he’s really struggling he’s probably completely overanalyzing and overthinking it this guy just has to get back to square one I I feel bad for guys that go through that type of thing and VI you know golf is better when Victor hland is challenging I had both he and Kea at the PGA last year and they were in the final pairing and that was thrilling yeah but boy he’s gone off the deep end we’ll see if he can I don’t know if he can turn it around in time for next week certainly we’ll see if he can get it together throughout the rest of the year yeah certainly something to keep tabs on and Brady will be helping us the entire way appreciate it Brady we’ll talk some pop next right here on Sports crit

hard to match the emotion that they played with the other night it’s smarter to be on Sports grid [Music] live right here on Sports grid the action continues as we head over for some playoff hockey Joe Madden helping us break it down Joe how are you on this Saturday morning I’m doing fantastic having a late night out there on the ice between the Canucks and the Oilers but if you stayed up definitely worth watching yeah certainly so I mean you take a look at these NHL playoffs so far and uh they’ve been a lot of fun and you know I’ve even been talking to people who don’t usually get as invested when playoff hockey rolls around and they’ve been loving it as well I’d love to start with last night quickly we’ll get to tonight’s games uh and I want to start in Vancouver 4-3 overtime win the fact that dry Sidle and McDavid each had four points in a game where they only had four goals I thought that was absolutely remarkable but I didn’t know if it was in some way a bit concerning that it took games that incredible from their best guys in order to get through Vancouver now again for Edmonton they are on the road here you know get back home do your thing score 56 goals who cares but what did you take away from Canuck Oilers as we sit one1 Kevin I love that you pointed that out because that’s what a lot of people aren’t talking about it was the Conor McDavid and Leon dry cido game last night and without them out there on the ice where would the Edmonton Oilers be it gives you the question of the depth of the Edmonton Oilers because Four Points a piece both players played fantastic now we did have question marks on if Leon dryo would be out there on the ice I was skeptical if we would have seen him last night but then when you look at him over his playoff history this is a player that basically will come out there on one ice he will battle through that pain but if he’s not 100% taking this series here versus the Vancouver kanaks with all the workload having to rely on Conor McDavid and Leon dry cidal is going to be a hard battle so while I think they play a fantastic game absolutely deserve that win last night you’ve got to think you’ve got to get that secondary scoring out there for the Edmonton Oilers against the Vancouver kaks it’s gonna be absolutely game seven between these two I don’t see it coming easy for either of these teams uh and then Joe with Florida and the domination that they put up on Boston and now over two games do you feel that it’s just hey the series is 2-1 Bruins grab the next one we’re all even here or maybe the Bruins are in a lot more trouble game one was kind of fluky this will come down to the question mark on Brad mosan if he’s going to get back out there on the ice he took that huge hip from Sam Bennett last night and the bad blood is going to be even worse for the next game between these two I’m seeing more penalties coming and if Florida keeps playing the way that they’re playing and Brad doesn’t hit the ice out there I really do think the Florida Panthers could take each and every one of these games from here on out so I’m looking for Boston to in a little bit of trouble right now it all comes down to if their Captain if he hits the ice he really is the straw that stir a drink for the Boston Bruins and I just don’t see them being able to get past a team like the Florida Panthers without him you look at the defense and what the defense was able to do out there on the ice and boski playing absolutely fantastic this is a hard Florida Panthers team to get past and I do think they have the upper hand especially without their captain on the ice for the Boston ruins yeah it’s going to be really fun to watch both of those series play out let’s pick this up though with tonight Carolina New York and uh Joe I got to tell you um obviously being from New York I know a lot of Rangers fans and you’ve been trusting this Rangers team throughout this series but game three was kind of the Tipping Point where I had people sending me your tweets being like Joe Madden sharp like people are loving it people are loving the way that the Ranger stuff has been rolling here and you have been respecting this team throughout and I and I feel like I have as well but now it does Carolina has to be able to get one I mean a sweep feels crazy are you playing the money line here in game four yes I’m going to sprinkle on the money line but I do think the safest bet and the best bet is to look at the under one and a half in the first period and this full game to the under five and a half I canot when I’ve taken the New York Rangers in every single game in this series with that plus money I shake my head here looking at the Carolina Hurricanes getting so much respect still now a team with their backs against the wall is so dangerous out here Kevin I could see Carolina taking this one in the New York Rangers taking it at home in Madison Square Garden in game five that’ be fantastic they’d get the gentleman sweep and I think that’s it’s either tonight or it’s in game five I don’t think Carolina wins two here so this is gonna be a battle but I do think defense really comes to play eigar curin the hottest season he’s been absolutely phenomenal he stopped 45 of 47 shots in that last game unless he has an off game unless the Carolina Hurricanes find a way to hit him which they haven’t been able to do in these first three games it is the New York Rangers who win this tonight I’m looking for solid defense the chemistry of this team is absolutely phenomenal their ability to move that puck out there on the ice will be fantastic and their kill is second to none they held the Carolina Hurricanes to no Power Play Goals on five attempts in that last game but Carolina’s defense has been strong as well they didn’t allow the Rangers to score on the power play in the last game either so defensive battle out there I will sprinkle a little bit on the Rangers on the money line I just can’t knock Kevin now I’m curious do you do we have an idea as to who will go in goal for Carolina cuz at the moment the eagor props are all up we don’t have anything yet for the canes uh and Anderson had started every game uh I think prior just to the last one do do you expect Anderson back in net for Carolina I would think they go back to Frederick Anderson I think they were thinking they would have um a oneup putting kochukov in kind of upsetting the balance there because we’ve seen the Rangers be able to hit Frederick Anderson but Frederick Anderson is clearly the stronger goalie maybe they were giving him a night off so he could get rested and come out stronger and I do expect him to come out stronger on that ice the couple of pox he allowed through the five hole in those first couple of games were not Frederick Anderson like but we also know Frederick Anderson in the playoffs hasn’t been the player that most people expect when you look at him over his history so I do think they go back to him he’s a fantastic goalie we’ll see what happens but I would count on him in net tonight for Carolina I’m really curious what his props could possibly look like you look at his saves uh in this series 19 in game one 39 35 in game two but that was double overtime and I’m just curious what those numbers uh would look like eigor right now for a saves prop checks in at 30 and a half uh is what I’m seeing we’re going to get a little bit into a Stars plus the baseball board making it happen right here on Sports g game time decisions [Music] you [Music] every Miss call the entire game whether it’s

night it’s smarter to be on Sports grid [Music] back with you here we’re live with you on Sports great a game time decisions I’m Kevin W joined by Joe Madden we’re going to talk some major league baseball in a bit here but I want to get over to the ABS Stars game and Joe I’m I’m tempted to play a little Colorado Cup right now I think the plus 550 number very bizarre overreaction from the books who positioned Colorado as Stanley Cup favorites when they took a one lead in this series they haven’t lost at home yet they’re back home we all know how dominant Nathan McKinnon has been this season at home I think the ABS win this game but I’m thinking about reaching a little bit higher and again maybe playing Colorado to win the Stanley Cup before we get into the picks for this game what do you think about this series do do you feel that Dallas really stole momentum back in game two they stole a little bit of momentum the difference here was their special teams their special teams were able to convert on two of five power play attempts and we saw Colorado go 0 and three in that game too looking though at the ABS here at home Kevin you absolutely said it they haven’t yet left or lost in the playoffs yet at home and I really do think in this one here they’re the right side the problem is the books have them Juiced at minus 135 minus 140 at the moment which isn’t something I want to lay in such a tight battle what I’m going to do in this one Kevin I’m going to live bet the Colorado Avalanche one thing we have learned is they’re starting off so slow in that first period Dallas is finding a way to put those goals on the board in the first as soon as Dallas comes out here and scores in that first period And even if they don’t I’m fine missing out on Colorado at minus 137 but if they do I’m GNA take the Colorado Avalanche when you’re getting you know plus 110 for them after Dallas goes up I think the best bet before going into this game though is looking at the total over six and a half in the first two games between the two teams we’ve seen 15 goals out of them and kale Mar and Nathan McKinnon were really limited last game we only saw three shots on goal for Nathan McKinnon in the last game K Mar as well but this team has every ability to fight and come back in these games I think they’re a perfect live betting situation once they do go down Wyatt Johnson was held off the scoreboard in the last game for the Dallas Stars as well this young rookie player is playing so Elite out there on the ice I would definitely look at him for that anytime goal for the Dallas Stars and I’d look at K marar and Nathan McKinnon to really bounce back in this game end up getting on the scoreboard I think this team on the power play will score on the power play at home as well and they should be able to lock down the stars more in this game so give me the over six and a half pregame give me a live bet on Colorado when they do go down and I do think this game has every opportunity of going to OT Kevin in a tight 33 battle into overtime pushing us right over that seven yeah should be a really fun game between Colorado and Dallas Joe will fly through the baseball board to the best of our ability here uh we’ve got Toronto against Minnesota uh and the Blue Jays yesterday cost me a little fun with an all team total parlay so uh can’t stand this team uh wish him the worst here today against Minnesota Kevin I can’t stand this team either this is my team and they let me down left right and Center Now Kevin Gosman getting the start and everyone high on them I’m not laying minus 150 on the Toronto Blue Jays I look here at the Minnesota Twins starting wood Richardson and I do think they have the upper hand I’m going to take the plus money on the Minnesota Twins that’s coming in at plus 130 the Toronto Blue Jays are not getting my money that’s for sure yeah I don’t blame you there uh Joe I know there’s always some nerfies potentially on the board any here uh with today’s slate yeah a couple nerfies that I’m looking at for sure Kevin um the first one being looking at where do I have my nerfy drawing a blank between the Minnesota Twins I’m taking the twins at plus 130 the Atlanta Braves and the New York Mets I really do think that will be a lower scoring game there looking at that one for both of those pitchers to come out nice and phenomenally strong Kevin all right so we got some nerfy action there uh Dodgers team total as well Joe late night you think the offense bounces back yeah I’m Ting that team total the team total is coming in at four and a half but I do think you can take that one to the over five and a half in that matchup and get some plus money on the Dodgers Paxton getting the start here for the Dodgers and walren coming out here for the San Diego Padres I just don’t have the faith in him while his erra is just over five overall on the season you look at his erra at home he’s 0 and three at home this season an ER north of seven and I do think the Dodgers come out nice and strong in this one and are able to go over five and a half runs so I’m going to take that that’s coming in at plus 128 Kevin all right plenty of baseball action there from Joe as always we appreciate it best of luck uh with the action on the diamond and the ice as well quick break as we continue to break it down with you right here at sports grips game time decisions [Music] h
