AI Game Analysis

TB rightfully juiced at -290 with Kucherov dominating and Vancouver missing Demko + 4 D-men, but ML offers no edge—vig eats the 70% projection. Canucks home dogs hit 45% as +200+ (small N), plus TB red-eye travel, but EV barely positive at +1.45/100. Under 6.5 temping on cross-country fatigue (5.8 GA avg), but Kucherov firepower caps it. Zero model history = max caution; market has this priced correctly.
