Jeremy Swayman (Boston Bruins) Over 22.5 Saves (-125)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Jeremy Swayman's projected saves at 24.41 is above the line of 22.5, suggesting he is expected to make more than the set saves. His L5 overall saves average is also significantly higher at 27.4. Despite his L5 home games saves average being slightly under the line at 20.6, his recent performance trend shows an uptick. He has hit the target in all of his last three home games, indicating a positive trend. Furthermore, his overall hit streak is 2, and he has successfully hit the target in 4 out of his last 5 games. Considering his recent performance, overall saves average, and the model's prediction, the bet on Swayman making over 22.5 saves is statistically backed.
