Las Vegas - Back on the NHL ice tonight, and gonna skate with Edmonton over Anaheim. After an UGLY seven game losing streak back in January, the Oilers have come back stronger, REAL strong.

Las Vegas - Super Bowl LVI. Actually, I'm gonna say it right at the top, and please don't get mad at me. Can honestly say I'm not really thrilled with this matchup. Not thrilled laying -4/4.5 points, but then again, not sure if this dog from Cincy is gonna be able to bark. Why the ambivalence? Because just looking at the numbers, these two teams are pretty even in some very important statistical categories. So, where's the edge?
