No idea or at least i dont remember who the sportsbooks installed at the beginning of this year and it could have been the greasers, but since that time its the bettors that have decided who they think will win....not some deep thinking/analytical/nonbiased source.

All that aside,and after watching that Nucks/Preds series, i see no possible way Vancouver beats the Oilers.

THat was some horrendous hockey that will only work against offensively limited teams. Edmonton is not that.

Oilers in 5.
No kidding, and have you seen Oilers/Elks 50/50 draws? The People of Edmonton have a serious gambling problem.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
