FULL ANALYSIS
Books price this a coin-flip (51.2% home) with zero Bayesian ML edge. The only real signal is the puck line: Pinnacle fair 70.4% Buffalo cover with RLM and $42.5K whale HOME steam, but DK -270 is worse than fair so it's a PASS at this quote. Total 6.5 is fair 50.2/49.8 with retail +122 over showing math value against the sharp under lean.
