Will Smith (San Jose Sharks) Over 1.5 Shots On Goal (-204)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Betting on Will Smith to go over 1.5 shots on goal in the upcoming rink battle between the San Jose Sharks and Edmonton Oilers feels like a good call. This sharpshooter has been consistent lately, with his last three games seeing him land every shot he took. Talk about keeping the goalie on his toes! He's been equally proficient when playing away - his current hit streak there stands at two. He's also been getting the puck on net more frequently in recent games, with an average of 2.6 shots in his last five outings, both overall and on the road. Add in the fact that Smith has beaten this 1.5 shots line in six of his last seven away games, and it's clear why he's the player to watch. Look for Smith to keep the goalies guessing and exceed the 1.5 shots mark once again.
