Details

We find value on Ottawa (home). The market moneyline (Ottawa 2.04 / Philadelphia 2.86) implies raw probabilities of ~49.0% and ~34.97% respectively (total book ~83.99%, implying a ~16% bookmaker overround). Normalizing the market would push Ottawa's implied chance to ~58.4%, which aligns with our independent view. From the research, injuries look roughly offset (Ottawa missing Nick Cousins and Travis Hamonic; Philadelphia missing Ryan Ellis and Garnet Hathaway) and Ottawa has the home-ice edge. Given these factors we estimate Ottawa's true win probability at 58% (0.58). At the offered decimal price of 2.04 this gives positive expected value (EV = 0.58 * 2.04 - 1 = +0.183). The minimum fair decimal odds required to break even on our estimate are 1.724 (1 / 0.58), well below the quoted 2.04, so the current price represents demonstrable value.
