Jack Hughes (New Jersey Devils) Yes Anytime Goalscorer (+160)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The rationale behind the bet on Jack Hughes to score at any time during the Calgary Flames vs New Jersey Devils game is based on his recent performance and shooting rates. Although his overall average goals in the last 5 games might be 0, his average goals in the last 5 away games is 0.4, which aligns with the model prediction of 0.42. This suggests that Hughes is more likely to score when playing away. Additionally, his average shots in the last 5 away games stand at 2.2, giving him chances to score. His overall hit rate in the last 15 games is 40% (6/15), and for the last 5 away games, it's 40% as well (2/5). These statistics together with our model insights provide a reasonable expectation that Hughes could score during this game.
