Vancouver Goldeneyes travel to Minnesota Frost with the belt on the line

The Vancouver Goldeneyes bring the Belt Holders lineal championship to Minnesota on November 23rd, fresh off a 4-3 victory over these same Frost. Vancouver has defended the belt 1 time in this reign and will look to extend their winning streak against a Minnesota side that has held the belt 8 times previously but enters on a loss.

Worth watching

  • Vancouver's four-game winning streak versus Minnesota's recent playoff exit and current one-game skid
  • Head-to-head history favors Minnesota 4-1 all-time, but Vancouver won the most recent meeting 4-3
  • Minnesota's home ice advantage against a Vancouver team the Elo model considers the underdog

The numbers

Vancouver has won their last 4 games including a 4-3 win over Minnesota in their most recent encounter, while the Frost have lost their last 1 game. The Elo model favors Minnesota despite Vancouver's current form.

The lean
Vancouver Goldeneyes 2, Minnesota Frost 3

While Vancouver has won their last 4 games and took the most recent meeting 4-3, the underlying numbers suggest regression. The Elo model backs Minnesota as the favorite at home. Despite the recent form favoring the Goldeneyes, the deeper trends and home ice point to a tight Minnesota victory that reclaims the belt for a team that has held it 8 times before.
