Post-Game Analysis

How our model performed

The Avalanche defeated the Oilers 2-1.

Our model predicted the Avalanche would win with 51% confidence -- and they delivered. A close call, but the model's slight lean proved correct.

Looking at the factors our model weighed:

  • Home Field Advantage favored the Oilers and was a notable factor: Oilers are 0-0 at home this season
  • Defensive Efficiency favored the Avalanche and was a contributing factor: Avalanche defense (2.4 Opp PPG) better than Oilers (3.4 Opp PPG)
  • Recent Form favored the Avalanche and was a contributing factor: Avalanche (42-10) in better form than Oilers (30-25)

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