David Rittich (New York Islanders) Over 24.5 Saves (-110)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

David Rittich is a strong choice for an Over 24.5 'Player Total Saves' bet due to his robust previous performances. Rittich's average number of saves over the last five home games is 25.8, surpassing the line set for this bet. Furthermore, his overall average for saves in the last five games is 27, again exceeding the betting line. His performance against a high volume of shots is also notable, with an average of 28.2 shots against in home games and 30.4 overall. Rittich has consistently demonstrated the ability to handle this volume, as indicated by his hit rate of 2/3 in the last three home games and 3/4 overall in the last four games. The model's prediction of 25.73 saves further supports this bet, falling above the line. These statistics present a compelling case for Rittich to exceed the 24.5 saves in the upcoming game.
