SPOTTER.
How the hockey grades have done · nothing settled yet
The read. The bands shipped as cut from the fit window; the one 2025-26 holdout look is spent and its meaning is pre-committed: a band may be called edge-shaped only on a flat-stake return above zero at 30 or more settled leans. This page applies the NFL lane's verdict table to the same four reads — return at the price, return at the close, beat-the-close on movers, the model's mean P(lean side) beside the hit rate — at the same 30-lean first look. The holdout said: moneyline A 75% on 12 (noise), B 68% hits and a 1.6% loss on 142; puck line A lost 15.6% on 177 and B 6.4% on 211.
Columns. RETURN is the flat-stake return per $1 at the price the card showed. AT CLOSE is the same result priced at the captured close. BEAT is how often the lean's side got a better number than the close, counted over the leans whose line moved. MODEL is the model's mean chance on the lean's side, to hold against WIN %.
No grade has settled yet. The record starts with the first settled slate — every grade in it was frozen before kickoff.
What this counts: every Hockey grade Spotter wrote on its own lane, one row per game and market (the final grade when one was written, else the first), settled against the final score and never removed. Return at the price is a flat stake at the price the card showed; at the close, the same result at the captured close; beat-the-close counts only the leans whose line moved.
