⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment leans toward the home favorite Sabres, aligning with sharp money indicators and line stability, making a follow strategy optimal rather than fading. Both teams’ mid-tier offenses meet solid goaltending, pointing to a controlled, lower-scoring affair under the total. Injuries to Sabres’ depth (Kulich, Norris out) and Blues’ Neighbours slightly favor Buffalo’s core but don’t shift the edge significantly.
