5.5
Market Consensus de-vigged fair value is 50.0% under; retail +110 yields +5.0% EV, backed by a strong 3.1% sharp divergence with RLM toward the under and both teams' top scorers diminished (Kane out, Barkov/Marchand IR).
Ω Bottom Line
Skip the juiced -250 Panthers ML (posterior 71.4% = exact breakeven) and take under 5.5 at +110 — +5.0% EV with sharp RLM confirmation while Barkov and Marchand sit on IR.

Game Analysis
Model flags a real edge: Panthers 73.7% fused posterior vs 70.5% Kalshi prior (+3.2pp) despite missing both Barkov and Marchand, and 5 profitable whale wallets (100% home, $17.2K) back it. But NHL is paused (ROI -13.9%, CLV beat 25%) and no sportsbook price exists — so all three markets ship PASS. Wait for lines and the pause to lift; the ML edge at -263 breakeven 72.5% is likely too thin anyway.
