What the model said before the game

Before puck drop, arakiceML had the Minnesota Wild as the favourite at 57%, and they won. See the timestamped file.

One game says very little about a model. What matters is whether its 60% calls come in about 60% of the time over hundreds of games: see the accuracy record.

What the model weighs here

The projection starts from expected goals, meaning the quality of chances each club creates and gives up, which holds up better than goals scored. It then adjusts for what is only true of this game: who is confirmed in net, rest and travel, whether either club is on the second night of a back to back, and the referee crew where it moves the total.

Schedule, standings and results from the NHL public API. Head to head history from ArakIce's own game database.
