Looks like the Oilers are who they always are: Great offense and can't stop a soul. Kinda got burned by them the other day when Ryan Nugent-Hopkins was ruled out after I made a play. He remains so and Zach Hyman is out tonight, too. Those are the team's two most important forwards after Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. Edmonton has a handful of other guys on IR. Really thin right now, so yep have to do this now at this price. Vancouver won't be lacking confidence off Tuesday's upset win and all teams come out flying in home openers. The Canucks are 7-2-1 in their last 10 home openers. Just get to OT ...
