ref assignments o'rourke and st laurent
seems a balancing act here. 1st ref above hates van 1-4 recored but 2nd ref van has a winning record
seems both like to pull out the whistle could be an edm adv if that is the case
last game emonton was the team that deserved to win. at least thru over 40 mins. still the score was tied til
late. seemed van was skating in quicksand prompting coach tocchet to read the riot act calling out
passengers. pete pettersson was the brunt of it looking uncomfy in a media press conference.
result of it has lineup changes
imo van's best line is this tonight garland- joshua- blueger trades spots with lindholm in an effort to get petey going
top line is suter-boeser- miller (who was responsible for the bouchard g. he played 19 min last game and apologized to coach for being the passenger)
all swede line lindholm-hoglander draws back in and petey
phil dgp=aman= podkolzin a fan fav draws in for his first game
yes cole is stil; in - he is brutal this series but last one vs preds he was a stalwart. least he is vans only brutal player
edm ahs 3 of hem brown, ceci, and nurse.
last game the 5 exhausted oilers played normal minutes. they will prolly be a bit more fresher.
van gets home ice and last and very important line change.
you already know who i am on. if van plays either dal or col if price is right i wont be a homer on some of the selections
petey getting what he wants some guys that can score and pass. mikayez btw is out he just cant score ne ways.
the '2nd' line formerly knowns as 3rd line is the best statistically in the nhl consider puck poss. points and joshua leading with hits.
2 caveats i suppose are letting drai and mcdavid loose for pp time and ofc cole coughing up or not clearing the puck
otherwise- tonight will be a faster skating and more puck possession vancouver team.
plays are just in case ref calls pp time- 6 over at pinn. also took 6.5 over +110 at matchbook
mb bets
van +134 6*
van reg +205 2.5*
over at 6 for pin for 3* and the pus money at mb +110 for 1
van tm ttl 3.5 ov +155 at bet365 for 1*
