2 modelsScratch Sheet, Regulation GapWhy 2 models like it
Scratch Sheet- Hyman and Nugent-Hopkins are confirmed injured/absent in the official NHL game preview.
- Both were Edmonton top-six contributors by 2025-26 points and ice time: Hyman 52 points/1,199 seconds; Nugent-Hopkins 56/1,144.
- Macklin Celebrini remains a game-time decision; his availability materially changes San Jose's true strength.
Regulation Gap- Sharks two-way +142 implies 41.3%; Sharks regulation +170 implies 37.0%; draw +295 implies 25.3%, so regulation-plus-half-draw is 49.7%.
- The two-way Sharks probability is 8.4 points below that venue-implied reconciliation; the Oilers check also misses by 5.2 points (59.4% versus 51.9% + 12.7%).
- Both inputs are raw implied probabilities with market margin; the apparent gap is not a devigged model estimate.

- Edmonton's current +1.5 goal differential per game leads San Jose's -0.5 by 2.0 goals, clearing the 1.2-goal form-gap screen.
- Both sides are quoted at 0.38/0.63, and the ladder is monotone; the -1.5 rung is the clearest five-point discount.
- Adjacent favorite rungs are 0.38, 0.26, and 0.11, with no placeholder or wide-gap quote detected.
- The current-form sample is only four games, so the 43% base rate may not transfer cleanly.

- Askarov's latest 10 starts: .8657 save percentage on 283 shots, approximately 11.54 goals below the .9065 benchmark.
- Edmonton ranks 11th of 32 in current 5v5 shot-attempt share and 4th in goal differential; both clear the top-half opponent gate.
- Edmonton is without Zach Hyman and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins; those absences reduce the attacking edge.
