The Over on 4.5 is a clear read. Avalanche's offensive engine, averaging 3.7 GF/GP, will exploit the Wild's league-average xGA/60. Even with decent goaltending, sustained zone time and a potent 25% PP will drive scoring. This line is suppressed; the market undervalues Avs' ability to dictate pace and generate high-danger chances. 85% YES — invalid if either team pulls their starting netminder pre-game.
