San Jose Sharks vs Pittsburgh Penguins

Ivar Stenberg (SJS) 1+ Ast

Odds 3.05 · Stake 0.50u

Why we took it

San Jose comes in off a 3-2 shootout win over the New York Islanders, and Ivar Stenberg has been skating in the Sharks' projected lineup. That gives him a role in a San Jose attack facing a Pittsburgh side that has struggled to close out games this season.

Penguins are 6-10-2 overall and 2-4-1 in games decided by one goal

Main risk: Pittsburgh's overtime habit shows they keep games tight, limiting San Jose's assist chances.

What the odds say

Decimal odds of 3.05 imply a 32.8% chance (100 ÷ 3.05), before the bookmaker's margin. That is also the share of bets like this one that must win just to break even over time.

At a stake of 0.50u, a win returns 0.50 × (3.05 − 1) = +1.02u, a loss costs −0.50u, and a push or void returns the stake. See the methodology for how every pick is graded, and the unit calculator to turn units into your own stake.
