Understanding Public and Money
Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Matt's Analysis:
I understand why this is available with Buffalo really slumping, in the second of a B2B and both at altitude after losing 5-2 in Salt Lake City last night (we won that), but I'm taking +2.5 in an NHL game -- maybe not an Olympic game next February. The Avalanche are without one key forward in Valeri Nichushkin (12 points, plus-2). Just the third start in net this season off injury for Mackenzie Blackwood, and he has a 3.42 GAA. 5-3 works fine by me.
