Scouting report

Sprinkle's read:CGY +1.5 puck line★★★

A dog that keeps it close

Calgary has stayed within a goal in four of their last five, and the puck line pays you for a one-goal loss.

The number

At +1.5 a regulation loss by one still cashes; only a two-goal defeat, empty-netter included, beats it.

The decider

Levi is the weaker net narrowly right now — stopping about nine of ten — so Edmonton's side of the scoreboard is the one likely to move.

The context

These two have been playing different games: Edmonton's games are track meets, Calgary's are ordinary. This bet is really a question of which pattern holds. Calgary is putting 29.2 shots a game on net and finishing 8.7% of them.

Situational

Neither team is on a back-to-back and both had at least a day off; nothing here is worth adjusting for.

What breaks this

Their last meeting went at a 6-goal pace.
