Quick read:

Over 6.5 stands out because the posted number looks a little too high or too low for the way this game should flow.

Vegas Golden Knights is 9-4. Colorado Avalanche is 8-2.

Over 6.5 is the better angle in Vegas Golden Knights vs. Colorado Avalanche because the matchup support is good enough to back the number without pretending every stat needs to sing in harmony.

If the number moves too far or late availability news changes the setup, the edge gets thinner before the game starts. A decent read can still get mugged by late-game nonsense, but that is part of the job description.
