Stuart Skinner (Edmonton Oilers) Under 27.5 Saves (-125)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

First of all, it's important to note that Stuart Skinner has been on an incredible run lately, particularly on the road where his current hit streak stands at 3 games. He's been limiting the damage against him, with an average of just 2.4 goals allowed per away game in his last five. But what catches the eye even more, is his phenomenal saves average. Skinner's been stopping an impressive 23 shots per game during his last five road trips — well below the under 27.5 line. And let's not forget about the Penguins' offense. They've been putting an average of just 25.4 shots on goal against Skinner during his recent away games, which doesn't exactly spell disaster for our goalie. Given these stats, Skinner's chances of keeping his saves below 27.5 in the upcoming clash with Carolina are looking pretty solid. So, if you're in the betting mood tonight, Skinner's 'Under' is a prop worth considering
