Game Analysis
Oilers are heavy favorites despite a laundry list of injuries, but the model sees value on the under. Omega projects a 4.0 total vs the market's 6.5, and the Bayesian posterior gives the under a +12pp edge. The spread at -1.5 is a lean with a modest +5pp edge, but the juice on the ML (-265) forces a pass. Injuries to both sides (Oilers missing Dickinson, Janmark; Canucks without Demko) suppress scoring potential, making the under the sharpest play despite historical total struggles.
