Lack leaves on stretcher; Wings win in OT again (Sports Betting News)

Playoff hockey is a constant reminder of how quickly momentum can change. On April 20, our model’s record was perfect: The Penguins clinched their series in five games and the Ducks and Predators had won in sweeps. Not only were we one of the very few to pick the Preds over the mighty Blackhawks, but our seemingly insane prediction that the Maple Leafs would take the series over the Presidents’ Trophy winning Capitals in a “coinflip” series seemed to have legs, with the series tied at two (including three games going to overtime and the teams’ stats lines standing virtually identical.

Thanks to Denis Gurianov’s winning goal in overtime against the Golden Knights, the Stars are off to the Cup Final for the first time since 2000.
