Where is the money going in Dallas Stars vs. Nashville Predators?

The Dallas Stars have 86% of the moneyline dollars against 72% of the tickets, a 14-point difference. A gap that size means the larger bets are not landing in the same proportions as the ticket count.

What does it mean when bets and money split?

Every ticket counts once in the bet percentage, but in the money percentage a $1,000 bet counts a hundred times more than a $10 one.

In the NHL that is common: last season the typical closing moneyline gap was about 11 points, and one game in four cleared 22. On its own, following the money has not beaten NHL prices.
