EDMONTON –1.05 over Carolina<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com

The series shifts to Western Canada and the Oilers can get back into the series with a win tonight. They were down 2-0 to San Jose before coming home and momentum changed than and there’s an excellent chance it’ll change again here. The Canes 5-0 win in the last game combined with the loss of Roloson has heavy influence on this number, as does public perception that the Oilers are done. Think again, Edmonton is not done and it says here that they win the next two games, tie the series up and head back to Carolina with a whole different mindset. The Hurricanes are up by two games but they haven’t even been close to dominating this series as much as the media and others would lead you to believe. The Canes have gotten the breaks, especially in game one and no way do the Oilers go away easy. Edmonton has proven to be about the toughest venue for the opposition this playoff year and that’s not going to change tonight. Yeah, Edmonton is down 2-0 but in terms of play they’ve skated with and outplayed the Canes for long stretches in this series and while we never use the words. “love this game” or “lock”, we are calling this match one of our strongest plays of the year. Play: Edmonton –1.05 (Risking 3.15 units to win 3).

Edmonton +5.40 over Carolina (adjusted series price after game two)<o></o>
This is just a great hedge opportunity because if Edmonton ties the series up, which we believe they will, this line will drop dramatically and we can than come back on the Hurricanes laying about –1.50. Again, Edmonton has to win the next two and this bet is only about that. In other words we’re going to get about 4-1 odds on Edmonton winning the next two home games and should that come to pass, we’ll play Carolina to win the series at the new adjusted series price, which will be about -1.50. Series Bet. Play: Edmonton +5.40 (Risking 2 units to win 10.80 units).
