What Sports Scope covers
NHL Stanley Cup playoffs
A Bayesian structural time-series model (BSTS) combined with a goalie volatility layer (HDSV%) and 10,000 Monte Carlo simulations. The model tracks each team's path to the Stanley Cup with per-round probabilities updated after every series result.
Methodology
The model blends team-level EWMA game-log strength estimates with a goalie modifier derived from high-danger save percentage. Market signals from 2 books are blended in where available. No black-box inputs — every weight is documented.
Resolved calls
Each call is frozen from the git history that proves it was public before the result — model probability against the market at the same instant. Market reach is context, never a headline; sports and elections are counted separately.
