Colorado Avalanche vs New Jersey Devils: Brent Burns Over 1.5 Shots on Goal (+120)
Odds correct at time of publishing
Brent Burns to get over 1.5 shots on goal is priced at +120, which offers solid value considering how he has been performing. The Colorado Avalanche have had some struggles lately, winning only 4 of their last 10 games, but they are known for their high-paced offense. Burns has been an important part of that, and with the Avalanche blocking an average of 14.5 shots a game, he should find opportunities to shoot.
On the other hand, the New Jersey Devils have been winning more often, taking 6 of their last 10 games, but their defense is not as strong in blocking shots. They only average 12.1 blocks per game, leaving openings for Burns to take his shots. The risk in this bet is that both teams are close in performance overall, but with the right chances, Burns could definitely hit that mark.
