Moneyline

Total

The betting market, with the margin removed, puts the over 6.5 goals at 46.5% and the under at 53.5%. That is near a coin flip, and AiQ's read is the market's own, so AiQ has no edge on the total. AiQ's projected total, 6.4 goals, sits on the 6.5 line.

Puck line

The betting market, with the margin removed, gives Edmonton Oilers +1.5 a 65.2% chance to cover and New Jersey Devils -1.5 34.8%. AiQ's read matches the market price, so AiQ has no edge on the puck line.

Trends in play

Recent results against the puck line back the Edmonton Oilers, the underdog here. The Edmonton Oilers covered the puck line in 7 of 7 road games this season.

Recent totals lean under. The New Jersey Devils went under the total in 5 of 7 home games this season.

These come from the closing lines of this season and last. They are context, not the reason for AiQ's picks, and the books price them in.
