Overall, the UNDER cashes at a 63% rate in Game 7s across the entire postseason, but the last time Game 7 saw at least six goals scored was in the 1950 final when the Detroit Red Wings beat the New York Rangers by s core of 4-3 in double overtime in Game 7.

Keep in mind, just because this bet has won in 14-straight Game 7s, doesn't mean it's going to hit tonight. In fact, the OVER has cashed in all three of the Oilers' wins in this series and is 4-2 as a whole in this year's Stanley Cup Final.
