Dylan Larkin vs. LA Kings
Why Bet the Over?
Larkin’s shot line is set at 2.5, and he’s been hitting it 100% of the time in his last 5 games. Even in his last 10 games, he’s still hitting 80%. With a projection of 3.6 shots, he’s a strong pick.
Matchup Notes
The Kings are tough defensively, but Larkin’s role on the top line and power play makes him hard to stop. He’ll need to capitalize on the man advantage to get those shots off.
Bet Takeaway
Larkin looks like a solid bet for the over. Check out his projections on 5v5 Hockey.
Robert Thomas vs. Vancouver Canucks
Why Bet the Over?
Thomas has a low shot line of 1.5, and he’s been consistent, hitting it 100% of the time in his last 5 games and 90% in his last 10. His projection of 2.6 makes the over look good.
Matchup Notes
The Canucks’ defense has been shaky, giving Thomas room to exploit turnovers and find shooting lanes. He’s not flashy, but he’s effective.
Bet Takeaway
The over on 1.5 shots seems like a no-brainer here. For more, check his gamelogs on 5v5 Hockey.
Travis Konecny vs. NJ Devils
Why Bet the Under?
Konecny’s line is set at 2.5, but his projection is only 1.46. Despite hitting the line in 100% of his last 5 games, the Devils’ defense makes this a tough sell.
Matchup Notes
The Devils are great at limiting shots, especially against top players like Konecny. Unless he gets power play chances, it’s hard to see him getting enough opportunities.
Bet Takeaway
The under on 2.5 shots feels safer. Check updates at 5v5 Hockey Player Projections.
