Raymond Report | ATS STATS
Teams are assets. The SBI is the market. Welcome to cold-weather investing.
If the NBA market feels like Nasdaq, the NHL market is bonds and commodities — slower, sharper, and far less forgiving.
The NHL Sports Betting Index (SBI) is sending a very different message than the NBA tonight:
SU: Bullish → Neutral
Totals: Neutral
ATS: BEARISH (Dogs > Favorites)
Translation?
👉 The house is punishing favorites ATS.
👉 Price sensitivity matters more than team strength.
👉 Capital preservation > aggression.
Let’s break down tonight’s Top NHL betting assets through the Raymond Report investing lens.
🟢 BULLISH ASSETS (Aligned with NHL Market Conditions)
These teams are behaving like defensive, cash-flow assets — steady, priced correctly, and moving with the SBI.
⚡ Tampa Bay Lightning (A)
- Market Role: Blue-Chip Defensive Stock
- Cycle: BULLISH
- SU: 35–18
- Home: 16–9
- Signal: Strong vs A & B assets
- Investor Read: Tampa fits a market where favorites still win SU, but you don’t overpay ATS. Controlled exposure only.
🌪️ Carolina Hurricanes (A)
- Market Role: High-Efficiency Growth Asset
- Cycle: BULLISH
- Home: 20–10
- COW: 67.39%
- Investor Read: Carolina is priced like a premium asset — and mostly earning it. Still, ATS bearish SBI = don’t chase steam.
🦆 Anaheim Ducks (B)
- Market Role: Mid-Cap Value Play
- Cycle: BULLISH
- Home: 16–9
- COW: 67.39%
- Investor Read: Anaheim quietly outperforming expectations. Market hasn’t fully caught up.
🟡 NEUTRAL ASSETS (Market-Dependent Holdings)
These teams move with the index. You don’t force trades — you wait for price.
🏒 New York Islanders (B)
- Market Role: Yield Asset
- COW: 69.23%
- Issue: Inconsistent momentum
- Investor Read: Strong vs A teams historically, but neutral cycle means timing matters.
🔴 New Jersey Devils (B)
- Market Role: Market-Tracking ETF
- STK: 2 Unders
- Investor Read: Devils reflect the broader NHL totals market — neutral, controlled, low volatility.
🛢️ Edmonton Oilers (B)
- Market Role: Volatile Energy Stock
- STK: 5 Overs
- Risk: Totals market neutral → overs are not free money
- Investor Read: Explosive upside, but this market rewards restraint.
🔴 BEARISH ASSETS (Out of Sync with the SBI)
These teams are mispriced relative to the current ATS environment, where dogs are dominating.
🍁 Toronto Maple Leafs (C)
- Cycle: BEARISH
- Away: 10–15
- COW: 32.61%
- Investor Read: Name value is propping up price. Market efficiency says fade or avoid.
🦅 Philadelphia Flyers (C)
- Cycle: BEARISH
- STK: 4 SU losses
- Investor Read: Downtrend asset in a market that punishes favorites ATS.
🏛️ Washington Capitals (C)
- Market Role: Aging Asset
- COW: 36.36%
- Investor Read: Occasional pop, but long-term trend remains weak.
🧠 DOG MARKET ALERT 🚨 (IMPORTANT)
The NHL ATS SBI is screaming one thing:
Dogs are outperforming favorites at a 66%+ clip YTD.
That makes teams like:
- Ottawa Senators
- Buffalo Sabres
- Seattle Kraken
…far more investable at the right price, even if they’re not “better teams.”
This is a pricing market, not a talent contest.
📊 NHL SBI MARKET SUMMARY
| Market | SBI Signal | Investor Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| SU | Neutral / Slight Bullish | Favorites still win games |
| Totals | Neutral | Avoid chasing Over streaks |
| ATS | BEARISH | Dogs > Favorites |
🧊 FINAL INVESTOR TAKE
The NHL isn’t Vegas glamour — it’s risk management.
- ✔️ Protect capital
- ✔️ Respect dog value
- ❌ Don’t overpay for brand-name favorites
- ⚠️ Let the price, not the logo, make the decision
If you’re betting NHL like NBA, you’re already behind.
📌 This is why ATS STATS doesn’t sell picks — it sells market awareness.
Cold ice. Sharp edges.
That’s how NHL profits are made. 🏒💰
