Less than it sounds. The typical NHL game closes with about 80% of moneyline tickets on one side, usually the favorite, and one game in four clears 87%. A split this one-sided mostly says who the public sees as the favorite.
Almost always. Over the last two seasons, 65% or more of total bets landed on the over in about 94% of NHL games. On this game the public side of the total is the Over 6.5.
