Florida Panthers vs Edmonton Oilers : Under 9.5 Total Goals (-1429)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The bet on 'Under 9.5' for the Florida Panthers vs Edmonton Oilers game is driven by the recent low-scoring performances from both teams. The Panthers' average goals in their last five home games is 0.6, while the Oilers' average goals in their last five away games is also 0.6. This indicates a low scoring trend for both teams. Moreover, both teams have a low average of goals against, with the Panthers at 1.8 and the Oilers at 2.4. The model prediction of 1.23 also suggests a low scoring game, further supporting the 'Under 9.5' bet. Additionally, the lack of power play points (PPpoints) and short-handed points (SHpoints) for both teams in their recent games indicates a struggle in capitalizing on special team opportunities, which often lead to higher scoring games. This data-driven analysis strongly suggests a game with total goals under 9.5.
Florida Panthers vs Edmonton Oilers : Edmonton Oilers +3.5 (-1250)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The bet on Edmonton Oilers at a 3.5 spread is justified by the comparative performance data of both teams. Firstly, the Oilers have performed better on the road, recording a 3-2 record in their last five away games, compared to the Panthers' 1-4 record in their last five home games. Additionally, the Oilers have a lower average goals against, both in general and on the road, than the Panthers have at home. This suggests a stronger defensive performance. Furthermore, the model prediction of 0.25, though conservative, points towards a lower scoring game. In such a scenario, the 3.5 spread provides a significant cushion. Lastly, the Oilers have been more effective in generating shots, averaging 6.6 shots per game overall and 4.6 on the road, while the Panthers have only managed 5.4 and 4.8 respectively. This could increase the Oilers' chances of scoring.
