📉 Line Movement
Stable; opened near even moneyline around -110 across board, slight shift toward Blues ML to -115 on some books like DraftKings and FanDuel, but no significant reverse action despite moderate volume.

💡 Mathematical Edge (EV)
+2.5% on Detroit Red Wings moneyline and puck line -1.5; simulations show edge from home advantage and Blues’ xGA vulnerabilities, cross-verified with recent form where Detroit covers 60% at home. No edge on Blues side given divergent public-money lean.

Top 3 Player Props

Player Prop #1: Dylan Larkin / Over 0.5 Points / -120 / 65% / Larkin’s eight-game point streak (6G-7A) aligns with high usage (22% on Detroit’s top line) against Blues’ penalty kill at 78%; matchup favors multi-point potential in even-strength play.
Player Prop #2: Jordan Kyrou / Over 3.5 Shots on Goal / -115 / 62% / Kyrou averages 4.2 SOG per game early season, covering in both recent outings; Detroit’s defensive zone starts (52%) allow volume shots for St. Louis’ top sniper without key injuries limiting ice time.
Player Prop #3: Jordan Binnington / Over 27.5 Saves / -110 / 58% / Binnington faces 29 SOG average on road, with Detroit’s xGF/60 at 3.1; Blues’ allowance of high-danger chances (11%) supports higher save volume despite solid .915 SV% form.

Follow the public here, as no reverse line movement signals sharp resistance, and contextual factors like rest equality and no major injuries reinforce the edge.
