Brandon Bussi (Carolina Hurricanes) Over 20.5 Saves (-120)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on Brandon Bussi for Over 20.5 in the 'Player Total Saves' market is a promising one due to several reasons. Bussi's L5 overall average saves is 23.6, significantly more than the line set at 20.5. His performance data over the last five games also shows that he tends to face a high number of shots (26.4 on average), which presents more opportunities for saves. Additionally, the model prediction of 23.4 saves for Bussi aligns with his recent performance, reinforcing the likelihood of him exceeding the 20.5 saves line. While his hit streak at home games is currently at zero, his overall hit streak is at one, and his hit rate in the last 20 games is over 50% (4/7). Thus, considering the predictive model data and Bussi's recent performance, the bet on Bussi making over 20.5 saves appears to be a well
