Chapter 1: What are today's betting picks against the spread?

14.541 - 25.545 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

That's right, it's time for Against the Sprint. And it's brought to you by our friends at DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Mike, start us off.

Chapter 2: How are the St. Louis Blues performing this season?

26.305 - 48.838 Mike

I'm going to ride a hot hand in hockey. By the way, we did some number crunching on the total succession rate, conversion rate of power plays in the NHL. Right now, it's as good as it's been since the mid-80s. You won't have a team setting records the way that the Edmonton Oilers did, but the floor is a lot higher now in the NHL. So the St. Louis Blues have won nine out of their last ten.

Chapter 3: What are the current NHL power play statistics?

48.998 - 63.583 Mike

They are scorching hot. Monty and them boys are finally clicking on all cylinders over there. They have a tough test today at Edmonton, but I'm going to ride the hotter team. I'm going to go alt spread here. Going to take a chance. Going to take blues minus one and a half on a road. Sorry.

65.984 - 68.565 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Against the spread. It wasn't done.

0

69.686 - 72.05 Mike

to cash that in at hopefully over plus 240 juice.

0

72.07 - 74.113 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Against the spread.

0

74.574 - 77.759 Mike

Usually when you say the spread.

77.779 - 81.505 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Yeah, but I was just, I'm taking an old spread, so it's like juicy. Accountability, that's on me.

81.665 - 82.106 Mike

No, no, it's all right.

Chapter 4: Why is Billy betting on the Anaheim Ducks?

84.574 - 84.934 Billy

My turn?

0

Chapter 5: How have the Calgary Flames fared against the Ducks?

85.155 - 87.377 Mike

Again! Let's go to Billy!

0

Chapter 6: What does Billy predict for the Ducks versus Flames game?

87.797 - 110.76 Billy

All right, I'm going to stay on the ice, and the Calgary Flames are headed to Anaheim to take on the Ducks. Your Ducks. I've been big on the Ducks this year. Now, you look head-to-head, the Calgary Flames, three wins, no losses against the Ducks so far by scores of 4-1, 4-1, and 3-2 in overtime. The Flames have lost four of their last seven. four of their last 11, and 14 of their last 25.

0

111.601 - 130.215 Billy

On the other hand, the Ducks have lost three of their last seven, six of their last 11, and 13 of their last 25. The Ducks have been eliminated from the postseason already, but you know these scrappy Ducks, they're not just going to roll over here to the Flames who are still in playoff contention. That's why I'm going to take the Anaheim Ducks plus one and a half tonight.

130.795 - 135.502 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Against the Sprint! What an odd game to take.

0

135.542 - 140.308 Mike

So four out of their last seven, but also four out of their last 11? Yeah, they had a win streak in there.

0

140.589 - 142.411 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Yeah. Okay. Makes sense.

142.992 - 143.733 Billy

All right, Greg, bring us home.

143.753 - 144.734 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Plus one and a half, right?

144.874 - 145.916 Billy

Plus one and a half for the Ducks.

145.956 - 163.48 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Against the Sprint! I think power play goals should only count as half goal. Really? Yeah, I'm serious. I want to make that change in the NHL. It'll never happen because it messes with history and statistics. What about empty netters? Empty netters should also count as a half a goal.
