AI Pick for St. Louis Blues vs Vegas Golden Knights – NHL

The play is Mason McTavish Over 0.5 points at 2.11.

This isn't a bet on a team but on one player's number, and that number has a track record.

Mason McTavish has been averaging 1 point over 9 games, and the book set the line at 0.5: 0.5 below that average.

The model's projection, which weights recent games more, is 1 points, practically the same as the plain average; it also sits on the pick's side, 0.5 from the line.

Had this bet been placed in each of his last 9 games, it would have won 7 times.

Is it enough? At 2.11 you need to win roughly 4.3 out of every 9 just to break even, and Mason McTavish has been well above that bar.

In his last 4 games he posted 0, 1, 1, 3 (most recent first): 3 of 4 on the pick's side, in line with the 7 of 9 across the whole sample.

He plays at home today: in that setting, within the sample, he averages 0.67 over 3 games, a bit below his norm.

An NHL point is his own goal or an assist on a teammate's.

The Over needs his team to score with him on the ice, and the power play is usually where those pile up.

Where does the edge come from? From comparing two things: how often Mason McTavish clears this line or not in real life, and the market's consensus price.

When the odds on offer pay more than that blend, there's value.

If Mason McTavish ends up not playing, the bet is voided: the risk of a late scratch isn't on the bettor.
