The Sheet
What is Surprisal?
Surprisal measures how surprising a result was, based on pre-game probabilities.
0 bits = perfectly predicted.
3+ bits = major upset.
A result is flagged as an UPSET
when surprisal exceeds 2.5 bits.

Projected Finish
How the rest of the season could play out — remaining games are simulated with home ice and rating uncertainty, then finishing positions are tallied. Ranges show the likely spread, not a single guaranteed rank. An analytical model for discussion, not advice.
