Money Moves | May 5, 2026 | Hour 2

In this episode of VSiN's Money Moves, hosts Stormy Bonantoni and Jonathan Vontobel dive into the latest developments across major sports, with a strong focus on the NHL playoffs. They analyze the high-scoring Game 1 between the Colorado Avalanche and Minnesota Wild, where the Avalanche's dominant offense and defensive resilience led to a 9-6 victory, prompting a coaching change as the Wild bench Jesper Wallstead for Philip Gustafson. The hosts debate the implications of this move, the defensive adjustments needed by Minnesota, and the potential for a Conn Smythe Trophy run for Nathan McKinnon or Quinn Hughes. They also examine the controversial no-icing call in the Golden Knights' 3-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks, discussing the nuances of the rule and its impact on the game. The segment shifts to the Leafs' controversial hiring of John Chica as GM, sparking outrage due to his past misconduct and questionable credentials, despite the presence of Hall of Famer Matt Sundin. In NFL offseason betting, they assess Deshaun Watson’s odds to start week one for the Browns and his near-zero chance of winning Comeback Player of the Year, while also exploring Tua Tagovailoa’s potential resurgence with the Falcons. The episode concludes with a recap of best bets, including under 216 in the Cavs-Pistons game and a Thunder sweep prediction against the Lakers.
