Total

The betting market, with the margin removed, puts the over 6.5 goals at 57.2% and the under at 42.8%. AiQ's read matches the market price, so AiQ has no edge on the total. AiQ's projected total, 7.1 goals, comes from the same market prices, so it adds nothing to them.

Puck line

Trends in play

Everything points over on the total. The last 5 games involving the Anaheim Ducks went over the total. Of the last 10 meetings between the Edmonton Oilers and the Anaheim Ducks, 7 went over the total.

Against the puck line, the records pull in opposite directions. The Edmonton Oilers covered the puck line in 4 straight games. Meanwhile, the Anaheim Ducks covered the puck line in 7 of 10 games as underdogs 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.
