Highest Value
Toronto Maple Leafs @ Winnipeg Jets — Over/Under | Under 6.5 (+101)
According to Corsica, the best value on tonight’s slate is the under for the Maple Leafs at Jets. Despite the perceived offensive prowess of these two teams, Corsica gives this game a 62.02% chance of hitting the under of 6.5 goals. The Jets are averaging just 3.22 goals per game and 2.67 goals against. Six of their nine games so far this season have had less than 6.5 goals. They are averaging four minor penalties a game but are killing off 82.3% of them.
The Maple Leafs offense has hit a dry spell after exploding out of the gate. They remain third in the league in goals per game with 3.78 but have managed to find the back of the net only once in their last two games. Five of their nine games played have finished with less than 6.5 goals.
Highest Probability
Florida Panthers @ New York Islanders — Spread | FLA +1.5 (-259)
The highest probability of hitting on tonight’s slate is the Panthers beating a +1.5 spread against the Islanders. The Panthers are on the tail end of a back-to-back and have just one win so far this season. Despite their poor record, Florida has lost by more than one goal only once. Their top-nine has posted much stronger possession numbers at even strength than that of the Islanders. Corsica suggests this spread is considerably skewed and gives the Panthers a 75.03% chance of covering +1.5 tonight.
