Post-Game Analysis

How our model performed

The Bruins defeated the Ducks 4-2.

Our model predicted the Bruins would win with 60% confidence -- and they delivered. Even with modest confidence, the model got this one right.

Looking at the factors our model weighed:

  • Injuries favored the Bruins and was a major factor: Bruins healthier: 0 out, 0 doubtful vs Ducks 4 out, 0 doubtful
  • Home Field Advantage favored the Ducks and was a notable factor: Ducks are 2-3 at home this season; Bruins are 2-3 on the road
  • ELO Rating favored the Bruins and was a contributing factor: Ducks ELO 1473 vs Bruins ELO 1527 (diff: -53)
  • The Ducks are without 4 player(s) due to injury, which could tilt the matchup.

This analysis was generated from our model's pre-game assessment compared against the actual result. Factor accuracy helps improve future predictions.
