00:00Why don't we do a little Final Five for tonight?
00:03Let's see what we have.
00:05Now, remember, we start with you with the power play points.
00:07Much tougher to do in the playoffs.
00:10These are the fun bets.
00:11These are the home run bets.
00:13These are the touchdown bets.
00:14These are the kind of things that we are looking for with these.
00:17And I'm going with two guys from each of the teams tonight
00:21that absolutely has to get it done on home ice, too.
00:25Winnipeg needs to win down a game.
00:26I think that they'll maybe get a couple more power plays than Dallas tonight.
00:30So why not have Kyle Conner out there at plus 190 power play point for him this evening?
00:36And as we were just mentioned,
00:37maybe not a lot of goals in this Florida-Toronto game, I don't think.
00:41But Florida maybe gets some opportunities.
00:43They've gotten some power play goals in this series already.
00:46Sam Reinhardt will be the guy that's going to be out there for him.
00:49Plus 220 for him, really good price.
00:52Anything over two bills for Reinhardt for the power play,
00:54I'm going to get in the mix there.
00:55So just keep it simple.
00:57Conner and Reinhardt, two big guns on the top power play units
00:59for the two home teams that need to get it done this evening.
01:04As far as a goal scorer goes for tonight,
01:07why would I get away from somebody who has scored six goals in their last two games?
01:14I'm not going to.
01:15And yes, it's going to end at some point.
01:17You know, Rancid is going to have a game where he doesn't score.
01:19But you might as well get on the train while it's still going around the tracks.
01:23And I'm not even asking him to do what he's done the last two games.
01:26I don't need three.
01:27Just give me one.
01:28Mikko Rantanen tonight, plus 175.
01:31Looking to stay hot with him.
01:32As far as the side, as I mentioned today,
01:35I think Winnipeg gets it done tonight on home ice.
01:38I don't see this being a series where they lose the first two games at home.
01:42They're done in five.
01:43Going to be quick.
01:44I am not a believer in that.
01:45I think the Winnipeg Jets will have a lot of juice tonight.
01:48I think you'll get, I said this last Friday,
01:52it didn't go too well Friday night in game six in St. Louis.
01:54I think you'll get a good Hellebuck performance tonight.
01:59He's got to be the guy that carries the mail.
02:01And I will take Winnipeg at home.
02:04Now, that's 126.
02:06So that's when I said that, which is probably a couple hours ago.
02:09That was the number here in New York.
02:10And I just told Dave it's 140 now here in New York.
02:13So that line has moved quite a bit already just in the last couple of hours.
02:17As far as the total goes, same thing.
02:20Florida and Toronto get an under now.
02:23Under five and a half and a plus 106.
02:26This is correlated to Florida winning this game tonight.
02:29This has got to be a 3-1, 4-1 type of win.
02:342-0, you know, something.
02:36The kind of Florida playbook game that they've had the last two years
02:41in their runs to the Stanley Cup final and winning the cup last year.
02:44It's going to be that style of game that they want to pull Toronto in.
02:47They cannot allow Toronto to do what they did the first two games in their place,
02:53which is come out.
02:53Nylander scored a bunch of goals.
02:55Marner scoring it.
02:56They've got to limit the main guys for Toronto.
02:59They've got to limit goals in the first 10 minutes of this hockey game.
03:03Florida has to come out and crack the egg first tonight.
03:06As far as the future goes, it's getting obviously tougher with the futures
03:09because we've only got eight teams left, but as I like to say now at this point,
03:15it's the Xactas is where I'm trying to give myself enough opportunities
03:20that once we get to the end, I have a couple teams that can be there.
03:24Dallas, Xacta over Toronto, still checking in at 11-1.
03:31That's good for me.
03:32You know, we've got the Leafs already up 2-0 with a chance to get into the Final Four.
03:36Dallas takes the first game in Winnipeg.
03:38Like the way they're looking, and they're starting to get healthy.
03:41Dallas over Toronto, 11-1, Xacta for the future this week on the Final Five
03:49here on NHL Today.
03:51Rantan and Gold Jets money line under Toronto, Florida,
03:54and we've got the future with the Dallas and Toronto
03:57and the power play points with Reinhardt and Connor.
04:01So you're all set up now for tonight and tomorrow in the NHL.
