The chance that the player scores at least once, overtime included: his share of his team’s goals this season (recent games count more) times the goals we expect from his team. Tested on two NHL seasons. There is no lineup feed: a player who sits out keeps his row and counts as a miss.

The model splits the result across regulation and beyond: 60% for Trinec inside 60 minutes, with a 19% chance the game is tied after three periods and heads to overtime. The market reads it similarly, pricing Trinec at 73% on the moneyline once the bookmaker margin is removed across 9 bookmakers. That is close to the model's number, so the price offers little disagreement with the predictions.
The projected 3–2 scoreline suggests a game Trinec control without running away with it, which fits a Ceske Budejovice side that has been competitive in its recent wins. The visitors' case rests on that form and on keeping the margin tight rather than on any rating advantage.
With a projected 3–2 score, Trinec −1.5 on the puck line comes in at 46% on our numbers, so the model sees the game landing on the wrong side of that line more often than not. The projected 6 goals sit above the 5.5 line, and the over lands 50% against it, making the total a coin-flip rather than a strong lean.
Trinec to win, overtime and shootout included (71%), with a projected score of 3–2.
