Philadelphia Flyers vs Columbus Blue Jackets: Conor Garland Under 0.5 Assists (-417)
Odds correct at time of publishing
For Conor Garland to not get an assist tonight, the Philadelphia Flyers need to keep up their strong defensive play. They have been blocking more shots than most teams and have been playing a physical game, landing almost 24 hits per match. This means there could be fewer scoring chances, which is good for this bet.
Garland has been struggling lately, and with the Flyers' ability to limit opposing teams' opportunities, he might not find the chance to set up a goal. The Flyers have won only 3 of their last 10 games, so they'll be eager to tighten their game even more. The risk here is that Garland could surprise and get an assist if the Blue Jackets find their rhythm.
