FULL ANALYSIS
Ducks hammered by Gudas suspension + Mrazek IR while Sabres down just Pearson DTD and depth IRs; Thompson's 71 pts + Dahlin's 48 give Buffalo firepower edge. Anaheim's Gauthier (61 pts) shines but roster holes cap them. Model spits 54% Sabres ML (+3.2 EV) on cross-country neutral spot.
