Game Analysis

Model generates DET 3.4-2.6 edge (54% win) with home ice advantage and CBJ exposure to DET stars like DeBrincat (39G/81SOG). Detroit injuries to Appleton/Faulk hurt D but model still projects cover; totals exactly 6.0 caps under lean. All tiers overconfident (51.5-49.8% actual vs assigned), NHL ML profitable historically.
