There is one thing to keep in mind about the free selections on this page. They are just a small taste of what our experts have to offer. While the free plays are still expected to win, they are not the strongest plays from each expert. Their best bets of the day are for their premium clients.

Canucks +140

Vancouver is worth the flyer on Monday night in Game 7. They’ll host this one and you have to believe the crowd’s energy is going to be wild. Vancouver has been an exciting team this postseason and they have shown they have the ability to match the intensity and firepower of this Oilers side. The Canucks are at their best when they can win the possession battle and they’re going to put an emphasis on controlling the puck in Edmonton’s zone. This is too nice of a price to pass up on.

Game Analysis

Monday card up with MLB (Off a 3-0 Sunday sweep) and WNBA which also cashed out on Sunday. NHL Game 7 below

The NHL Game 7 play is on Edmonton at 9 eastern. The Oilers are off a solid 5-1 win in game 6 and despite being on the road here, they should display more big game poise here than Vancouver. The Oilers have lost some tough series the past few seasons but should make it to round 3 here. Playoff home dogs off a road dog loss scoring less than 2 goals have lost 5 of 7 times if they won the prior game as a home dog. In a game that should be close throughout we will back Edmonton to pull this one out. Rob V-
