Blake Coleman (Calgary Flames) Under 2.5 Shots On Goal (-161)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

If you've been keeping tabs on Blake Coleman's shot performance, you'll know he's been a little shy of the mark lately. The Calgary Flames' winger has been averaging just 2.2 shots per home game over his last five outings, dipping even lower when you look at his overall average of 2 shots per game. He's currently on a no-hit streak at home, and his hit rate for his last 15 home games is a respectable 12 out of 15, but it's not the kind of streak that screams 'sharpshooter'. Overall, he's been hitting under the mark in 13 of his last 16 games. As the Flames prepare to square off against the Tampa Bay Lightning, it's worth considering a bet on Coleman to deliver Under 2.5 shots on goal. After all, past performance often hints at future results.
