🏟 Hockey — NHL — St Louis Blues vs Edmonton Oilers
📌 Bet: Moneyline (Best book: LowVig.ag)
📈 Model Probability: 48% (Real likelihood based on St Louis' L10 xGA/60 at 2.6 home vs Edmonton's 3.1 away, + fatigue from 3-in-4 for Oilers)
📉 Odds: 2.27
🧮 Implied Probability: 44.1% (no-vig)
📊 Value Edge: +3.9% (Tier: C)
💵 Fair Odds: 2.08

🗓 Scheduled: 5:30 PM PST → 8:30 PM ET
🏠 Venue: Enterprise Center, St Louis, MO
🧠 Reasoning: Real win prob at 48% derived from Blues' 5v5 CF% 51.2 L10 (Natural Stat Trick) and Binnington's elite GSAx +8.2 L5 (Evolving-Hockey), offsetting Edmonton's PP% edge (28.4 L10) with Oilers' B2B fatigue (−5% adjustment) and TZ travel (≥2 zones, −2%). EGD base +0.4 from xGF differential, scaled for home adv +0.08; Poisson on total xG confirms low-volatility underdog spot. Model aligns with MoneyPuck's 46% projection, validating edge. Volatility=No (stable L5 defensive form).
📝 Notes: Goalie Projected (Binnington vs Skinner, Daily Faceoff consensus); JSON-derived odds; Injuries minimal (no key outs per Rotowire); High confidence in prob model cross-check with Evolving-Hockey metrics.
🏟 Hockey — NHL — Nashville Predators vs Vancouver Canucks
📌 Bet: Under 6.5 (Best book: DraftKings)
📈 Model Probability: 65% (Real likelihood based on combined L10 xG/60 total 5.4, elite PK% for both at 84.2/82.1)
📉 Odds: 1.61
🧮 Implied Probability: 60.2% (no-vig)

🗓 Scheduled: 5:30 PM PST → 8:30 PM ET
🏠 Venue: Bridgestone Arena, Nashville, TN
🧠 Reasoning: Real under prob at 65% from Nashville's HDCA/60 suppression (10.8 home L10) and Vancouver's xGA/60 2.4 away (MoneyPuck), with Saros' SV% .918 L5 (+5% elite adjustment) vs Demko's .912; no B2B fatigue but Vancouver's recent 3-in-4 (−3%). Poisson model on xG sum (home 2.8 + away 2.6) yields 64% base, boosted by PDO correction (<97, +2%). Aligns with Evolving-Hockey's 63% total projection. Volatility=No (consistent low-scoring L5).
📝 Notes: Goalie Projected (Saros vs Demko, Rotowire + Daily Faceoff); JSON-derived odds; Lineup thin for VAN (Hughes day-to-day, −5%); Model verified with Natural Stat Trick defensive splits.
🏟 Hockey — NHL — Seattle Kraken vs Chicago Blackhawks
📌 Bet: Seattle Kraken -1.5 (Best book: Bovada)
📈 Model Probability: 60% (Real likelihood based on Seattle's L10 HDCF/60 12.1 home vs Chicago's 13.5 away, goalie edge)

🧠 Reasoning: Real -1.5 cover prob at 60% via Seattle's CF% 53.1 L10 (5v5 domination +4%) and Daccord's GSAx +7.5 L5 (elite +5%), vs Mrazek's .891 SV% and Chicago's PDO>103 (−2% regression); no travel fatigue for SEA, Chicago post-B2B (−5%). EGD +1.1 base scaled 1.2× for puck line (59% cover), +home last change +3%. Matches MoneyPuck's 58% projection. Volatility=Yes (Chicago's high PDO swings).
