🔥 BEST: Puck line

Stars +1.5 has a 64% probability

Rarely do we get a team up 3-1 and +1.5 at the puck line. Vegas is favorites for this one but our model simply can’t look past Dallas to cover.

Over/Under

Total goals over 5.5 has a 4.4% edge against the sportsbooks

Right now, our model is giving this game a 46% chance of going over 5.5 goals but with the +130 odds available, it’s the suggested play. Basically, despite being a slightly under 50% chance of coming off, this is still a much better probability than the sportsbooks are giving it.

💵 Moneyline

Golden Knights (-175*) to win has a 60% probability

Pretty low odds here but we can’t go past the Golden Knights at the ML. DimersBOT has run the simulations and has Vegas coming out on top 60% of the time in this one.

🏒 Dimers' take-out

The sportsbooks and our model still like the Golden Knights here but it should be close, which is why our top play is the Stars at the PL. If you’re keen for some action, check out the best sportsbooks in your state here.
