Post-Game Analysis

How our model performed

The Avalanche defeated the Stars 3-2.

Our model predicted the Avalanche would win with 57% confidence -- and they delivered. Even with modest confidence, the model got this one right.

Looking at the factors our model weighed:

  • Injuries favored the Avalanche and was a major factor: Avalanche healthier: 3 out, 0 doubtful vs Stars 5 out, 0 doubtful
  • Home Field Advantage favored the Stars and was a notable factor: Stars are 3-1 at home this season; Avalanche are 1-3 on the road (divisional game, reduced advantage)
  • Recent Form favored the Avalanche and was a contributing factor: Avalanche (3-2) in better form than Stars (2-2)
  • Both teams are dealing with injuries -- the Stars have 5 player(s) ruled out, while the Avalanche have 4.

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