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.

Who will win Augsburger Panther vs Straubing Tigers?

Straubing Tigers are the pick on the road against Augsburger Panther with a 51% chance to win, overtime included, and a projected 3–2 score.

The table and the recent form point the same way. Straubing Tigers sit 2nd and have won 4 of their last 5, scoring 4.6 and allowing 2.2 goals a game over that stretch. Augsburger Panther sit 9th and have won 2 of their last 5, scoring 2.4 and allowing 3.0. The gap in goals for and against over the same five games is the clearest signal in this matchup.

The ratings back up the standings. Adjusted for the opponents they have faced, Straubing Tigers rate +0.36 goals per game against an average team, while Augsburger Panther rate −0.09, an edge of 0.45 goals to Straubing Tigers. Home ice is worth about 0.37 goals a game in this league, which nearly cancels that edge and explains why the model sees this as close to a coin flip rather than a clear road win.

In regulation the model gives Straubing Tigers 42% to win inside 60 minutes and puts the chance of a tie after three periods at 19%, with a tie going to overtime and, if needed, a shootout. That structure is why the 51% overall figure is only a lean: much of the road team's case runs through hockey beyond regulation. Augsburger Panther's route is narrower and depends on home ice holding up against the stronger form and table position of Straubing Tigers.

The projected 3–2 score leaves Straubing Tigers short of the −1.5 puck line, which our line prices at 27%, so a one-goal margin is the expectation rather than a cover. At 6.5 total goals the projection of 6.4 sits just below the line, and the under carries 53%. Both markets are tight, which fits a game the model treats as close to even.

Straubing Tigers to win, overtime and shootout included, at 51%, with a projected score of 3–2.
