CONFIRMED GOALIES

● Edmonton Oilers: Devon Levi (confirmed) — .888 save percentage, 3.49 goals-against average (GAA), GSAx (goals saved above expected) of -0.06 over his last 10 starts
● Carolina Hurricanes: Brandon Bussi (probable starter) — .881 save percentage, 2.66 GAA, GSAx -0.23 over his last 10 starts

GAME CONTEXT

The Edmonton Oilers are 7-1-1 in 9 games (7 wins, 1 loss and 1 overtime or shootout loss), for 15 standings points. Their last game was on October 20, 2026, with 1 day of rest. The Carolina Hurricanes are 8-2-1 in 11 games (8 wins, 2 losses and 1 overtime or shootout loss), for 17 standings points. Their last game was also on October 20, 2026, with 1 day of rest.

KEY ABSENCES

● Edmonton Oilers: Jason Dickinson (C) — out; Alec Regula (D) — long-term injured reserve (LTIR); Atro Leppanen (D) — LTIR; Frederik Andersen (G) — LTIR, knee; Matt Savoie (C) — LTIR, lower body; Mattias Janmark (C) — LTIR, surgery; 1 other player out.
● Carolina Hurricanes: Mark Jankowski (C) — out, lower body; Alexander Nikishin (D) — LTIR, contract dispute; Jordan Staal (C) — LTIR, calf; Taylor Hall (LW) — LTIR, upper body.

GAME SCRIPT

The 10-game figures include the end of last season. Both goalies are below a .900 save percentage: Devon Levi at .888, and Brandon Bussi, a probable starter, at .881. At 5-on-5, Carolina leads with 59.7% of shot attempts against 48.0% for Edmonton, and expected goals of 3.94 to 2.86. Edmonton is nonetheless scoring 4.30 goals per game, above its expected goals: that output could reverse, or hold if Bussi falters.

OUR ANALYSIS

MONEYLINE: No moneyline pick. Our model gives the Carolina Hurricanes a 59.6% chance, while the 1.850 odds imply 54.1%. The numbers support the model, with shot share and expected goals favoring Carolina, but the price doesn't pay off that scenario under our publishing criteria.

TOTALS: Our model leans Under 6.5, with a projection of 6.02 goals, or 0.48 goals below the line. The price doesn't pay off that scenario. Carolina's actual goals (3.60) and those of its opponents (2.40 allowed) remain modest, but Edmonton is scoring 4.30 goals per game.

Devil's advocate

Two goalies below a .900 save percentage and Edmonton's 4.30 goals per game point to an open game that could go over 6.5. That reading carries even more weight since we are not playing this game. If Bussi, a probable but unconfirmed starter, did not start, the balance could shift.

ProbWin verdict

We are not playing this game: neither the moneyline nor the total gets a pick.
