This is a 8* play on the Sharks.

My NHL Game of the Month in May was a bet on the Sharks in Game 5, and here is what I said before the opening faceoff:

"The Sharks were ever so close to taking a commanding 3-1 series lead in Game 4, but the Predators managed to eke out an overtime win to even the series at 2-2. Heading back to the Shark Tank, I like San Jose to win big here in this pivotal Game 5. San Jose was very impressive in a first round series versus the LA Kings, and this team appears to be destined to put an end to a long history of disappointing exits in the playoffs. While the home team has won all four games in this series, the Sharks still dominated play in Nashville, only to be stymied by Pekka Rinne. He faced 47 shots in Game 4, and I don't like his chances if he sees that much rubber here in San Jose. The Preds are 7-21 in the last 28 meetings in San Jose. The home team is 40-18 in the last 58 meetings."

Expect history to repeat itself in Game 7.

Take SJS.
