Scouting report

Sprinkle's read:DAL Under 3.5 team total★★★★

A quiet offense against a full number

Dallas has gone quiet, scoring three times a game over their last five, and tonight's number asks them to beat that.

The number

Dallas would need to roughly lift their recent output to clear 3.5, and nothing in the last five games suggests that is close.

The decider

The nets are about even — Oettinger and Greaves are both stopping about nine of ten — so goaltending is not the edge here.

The context

These two have been playing different games: Columbus's games are quiet, Dallas's are ordinary. This bet is really a question of which pattern holds. Dallas is putting 26.8 shots a game on net and finishing 10.5% of them.

Situational

Columbus is three games into a road trip — a notch toward the under.

What breaks this

If Greaves has another night like his last few, the under is gone early.
