Blake Coleman (Calgary Flames) Under 2.5 Shots On Goal (-192)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

The bet on Blake Coleman for under 2.5 in the 'Player Shots On Goal' market is largely driven by his recent performance and the model's prediction. Coleman's average shots on goal in his last five away games is 1, which is significantly lower than the line set at 2.5. His overall shots average from the last five games also stands at 1.6, still noticeably below the line. The model predicts Coleman will have 1.2 shots on goal, aligning with his recent performance. While he has a consistent hit rate in his last six away games, it doesn't translate to a high shot volume. His overall current hit streak is zero, indicating a recent drop in performance. Therefore, the data suggests that Coleman is unlikely to exceed 2.5 shots on goal in the upcoming game.
