Detroit Red Wings vs Florida Panthers Picks & Predictions

John Gibson (Detroit Red Wings) Under 26.5 Saves (-115)

When you watch John Gibson on the ice, folks, you'll notice something remarkable. In his last 5 away games, he's been nothing short of a brick wall, allowing only a measly 0.6 goals on average per game. Now, that's a stat that leaves goaltenders around the league green with envy. His save average is 20.8, facing 21.4 shots against on average. Even when we pull back the lens to look at his overall performance, the picture doesn't change much. Gibson's been a human highlight reel, with a 0.8 average goals-against and making 19.6 saves from about 20.4 shots per game. It's no wonder he's on a hot streak, under the line in his last 9 games. So, when Gibson and his Red Wings clash with the Panthers, do we really believe he'll change his tune and make more than 26.5 saves? Unlikely!

Daniil Tarasov (Florida Panthers) Over 22.5 Saves (-120)

Let's set our sights on Daniil Tarasov, the man between the pipes for the Florida Panthers. The Russian netminder has been a fortress at home, putting up a stellar average of 28.4 saves in his last five outings. It's no fluke either - he's been consistently under fire, facing an average of 31 shots each game. His current performance is clearly outpacing the 22.5 total saves line set by DraftKings for the upcoming match against the Detroit Red Wings. Tarasov's hot streak at home is undeniable - he's been hitting over this mark for five straight games. Despite allowing an average of 2.6 goals per game at home recently, it's clear that Tarasov is more than capable of piling up the saves when the pressure mounts. And let's be honest, with the Red Wings coming to town, he'll have plenty of opportunities to do just that.
