Alex DeBrincat (Detroit Red Wings) Yes Anytime Goalscorer (+155)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The rationale for betting on Alex DeBrincat to score in the 'Anytime Goalscorer' market is primarily driven by his recent performance data. In his last 5 away games, DeBrincat has averaged 0.6 goals and 4.2 shots per game, indicating he is consistently involved in offensive plays. His overall hit rate in the last 9 games is over 50%, suggesting a good chance of scoring. Moreover, his average of 0.2 game-winning goals in his last 5 games hints at his ability to perform under pressure. The model predicts a reasonable likelihood (0.46) of him scoring, with a standard deviation of 0.42, which further supports this bet. Despite his current away games hit streak being at 0, his strong performance and involvement in offensive plays make him a promising bet for 'Anytime Goalscorer'.
