Game Analysis
Massive model-market divergence here. OMEGA Poisson projects a 7.8-7.8 game (total 15.5) while the market has total at 4.2 — a 11.3-goal gap. Sharp money is siding with the market: 22.2% edge on home spread, RLM on under total, and $406K whale volume (88% home). Bayesian posterior shows negative edge on home ML (-2.3pp) but positive edge on away ML (+2.3pp). The under at 4.2 has the strongest sharp signal with RLM confirmation. Given the model's 44.6% NHL WR and 0-4 skid, I'm deferring to sharp money on the under and taking a small lean on Vegas ML at plus money. The spread at -2.5 is a pass — too wide with negative EV.
