Top 3 Player Props
Player Prop #1: David Pastrnak / Over Shots on Goal / 3.5 at -120 / 72% / Pastrnak averages 4.1 SOG vs Isles defense weakened by Pelech/Romanov absences, high usage rate
Player Prop #2: Bo Horvat / Over Points / 0.5 at -110 / 68% / Horvat’s 0.8 PPG in recent home games, Bruins PK vulnerable without McAvoy
Player Prop #3: Jeremy Swayman / Under Goals Allowed / 2.5 at -130 / 70% / Swayman .925 SV% at home, Isles offense down without Barzal

⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment favors the Bruins slightly, but money distribution and reverse line movement indicate sharp resistance to the favorite, creating value on the underdog side. With both teams dealing with significant injuries—Islanders missing Barzal and key defenders, Bruins without McAvoy and Lindholm—the matchup projects as low-scoring and competitive. Fading the public on the spread aligns with mathematical edges from simulations and metrics.

🔮 Recommended Play
Fade the public on Boston Bruins — simulation and injury data support higher probability for covering as underdogs in a tight game.
