With the Buffalo Sabres and Montreal Canadiens tied 3-3 in their best-of-seven Eastern Conference second-round series, the total-games market reflects full trader consensus on the over 5.5 outcome. Six games have already been completed, including Montreal’s 6-3 win in Game 5 and Buffalo’s 8-3 comeback victory in Game 6 that forced a decisive seventh contest at KeyBank Center. This locked-in minimum of seven games stems directly from the competitive balance and resilience shown by both clubs, with standout contributions from players like Rasmus Dahlin and Tage Thompson underscoring why neither side has been able to close out the series earlier. Only an unforeseen postponement or cancellation of Game 7 could alter the final tally, though league officials have given no indication of such developments.
