Nashville Predators vs Minnesota Wild: Brady Skjei Over 1.5 Blocked Shots (+115)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Brady Skjei is likely to step up in this matchup against the Nashville Predators. The Predators allow quite a few shots, averaging almost 30 per game, which gives Skjei a solid chance to get in the way of some of those attempts. With the Predators scoring nearly three goals a game, they will be putting pressure on the Wild's defense, making it even more likely for Skjei to block a couple of shots.
The bet on Skjei blocking over 1.5 shots seems promising, but there's a risk since the teams are closely matched in their overall shot statistics. Still, with the pace of the game expected to be high, Skjei should have the opportunities to reach that number.
