Schule's NHL ULTIMATE of the ULTIMATE - LAK@SJS
(NHL) Los Angeles vs. San Jose,

Money Line: 106.00 Los Angeles (Away)
Result: Loss
Money Line: 106.00 Los Angeles (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on the LAK.
I had the Kings to win this series versus the Sharks, and I was a little surprised when San Jose won both games in LA. That being said, one of the reasons why I liked the Kings was that the Sharks have a history of choking, most famously their first round series loss to LA two years ago. The Kings have a chance to tie the series heading home after Game 4, and I still believe they will get it done.
Here is what I said before the pucked dropped in Game 1: "They say that in life that the only things that are certain are death and taxes. In the NHL playoffs, nothing is certain, but perhaps the closest thing to "death and taxes" is early exits for the San Jose Sharks. This team is legendary for it's playoff futility, and the last time they faced the Kings in a playoff series, they blew a 3-0 series lead in 2014. The Kings went on to win the Stanley Cup that year. This year's Kings squad appears to be primed for another cup run, with the same core group that won two championships since 2012. Drew Doughty is still the best defenseman in the league, and LA can roll four lines that can all skate, score and hit (boy can they hit). I don't expect it to be easy, but when the dust settles, I think the Kings come out on top. "
Take LAK.
