Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
The 'Under 10.5' bet is compelling when considering recent performance and scoring statistics of both teams. Dallas Stars' last five home games averaged a low 0.4 goals, while the Edmonton Oilers only averaged 0.2 goals in their last five away games. The defensive stats also favor a low-scoring game, with Dallas Stars allowing an average of 2 goals and Edmonton Oilers allowing 2.2 in the same respective games. Furthermore, the model prediction is significantly low at 1.34, well below the 10.5 line. Both teams also have low power-play goal averages, reducing the likelihood of a high-scoring match. Overall, the scoring and defensive statistics for both teams, coupled with the model's prediction, strongly suggest that the total goals scored in the game will be under 10.5.
Dallas Stars vs Edmonton Oilers : Dallas Stars +3.5 (-5000)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
The Dallas Stars have struggled recently, with a 1-4 record in their last five games overall and at home. They've been underperforming offensively, with an average of just 0.4 goals per game. However, the large spread of 3.5 points could help them cover the bet. The Stars have shown they can compete with the Oilers, holding a 2-3 record in their last five meetings. The model prediction of -0.02 indicates a tight match, which could work in favor of the Stars with a spread this large. The Oilers, while more successful recently, have only averaged 0.2 goals more than the Stars in their last five games. These factors make a bet on the Stars covering a 3.5 spread a reasonable choice.
Dallas Stars vs Edmonton Oilers : Edmonton Oilers +1.5 (-233)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
The bet on the Edmonton Oilers with a 1.5 puck line advantage is appealing when we analyze the recent performance data for both teams. The Oilers have an impressive L5 overall record of 4-1, compared to the Dallas Stars' underwhelming 1-4. This trend continues in their respective away and home records, with the Oilers again outperforming the Stars. Furthermore, the Oilers have a superior goals against average in their last 5 overall and away games, suggesting a stronger defensive performance than the Stars. This is reinforced by the model's prediction of -0.02, indicating a slight edge towards the Oilers. While both teams have low scoring averages, the Oilers' stronger defensive record provides a crucial advantage. Therefore, the Oilers' recent form and defensive strength make them a solid bet with a 1.5 puck line.
