🏟 Hockey — NHL — Buffalo Sabres vs Colorado Avalanche

📌 Bet: Colorado Avalanche -1.5 (puck line) (Primary book: Pinnacle)

📈 Model Probability: 45%

📉 Odds: 2.50 (+150)

🧮 Implied Probability: 38% (no-vig)

📊 Value Edge: +7% (Tier: C)

💵 Fair Odds: 2.22 (+122)

🗓 Scheduled: 12:30 PM America/New_York → 12:30 PM ET

Venue: KeyBank Center, Buffalo, NY (surface: Ice; altitude: 600 ft)

Reasoning: Avs’ offense (10 in 3) vs Sabres (1 in 2) plus stronger 5v5 xGF and only 7 GA so far. Projected backups Wedgewood (.925) vs Lyon (.919). With MacKinnon/Necas rolling and Thompson/Dahlin quiet, a multi-goal Colorado win is likely. Volatility: No (line steady).

Notes: Goalie projected (unconfirmed for both teams). Sabres’ offense struggling badly; Avalanche crossing 2 time zones (Mountain to Eastern) but depth and form trump travel.

📌 Bet: Over 6.5 total goals (Primary book: DraftKings)

Venue: TD Garden, Boston, MA (surface: Ice; altitude: 0 ft)

Reasoning: 3-0 Bruins with last change; Swayman (1.00 GAA) projects better than Vasilevskiy (0-2, 4.66). TB banged up; trend supports BOS. Price makes them a value home dog. Volatility: No.

Notes: Goalie projected (both unconfirmed). Rivalry game; expect tight, defense-first Boston effort.

📌 Bet: Under 5.5 total goals (Primary book: Pinnacle)

🗓 Scheduled: 1:00 PM America/Toronto → 1:00 PM ET (Canadian Thanksgiving matinee)

Venue: Canadian Tire Centre, Ottawa, ON (surface: Ice; altitude: 330 ft)
