Game Analysis
Rangers are banged up with 4 key players out including starting goalie Korpisalo, but $173K in whale volume at 71% conviction on HOME side signals institutional money sees value. Model projects 56% win probability vs 54.5% market — a thin +1.5pp edge. The spread is a stretch at -1.5 given the goalie situation; the moneyline is the cleaner play. Under 5.5 is a lean based on missing offensive pieces, but totals are historically our weakest market (48.7% WR).
