FULL ANALYSIS
Matthews out guts Toronto's top line (27G, 30% usage), dropping their win prob ~20% historically. CAR's Aho/Jarvis duo (45A/28G) exploits depleted TOR D sans Tanev. Model sims CAR 74% win at -218 (+5.2 EV); under 6.5 hits 58% w/o TOR scoring engine.
SHARP MONEY
Line heavily favors Carolina despite Toronto home; implies sharp respect for Matthews absence (-20-25% Toronto offense)
