Colorado Avalanche vs St Louis Blues: Martin Necas Under 2.5 Shots on Goal (+122)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
The Colorado Avalanche and St. Louis Blues are both looking to find their rhythm, but the Blues have struggled to score lately, averaging only 2.80 goals per game last season. With their recent shots-per-game stats, they don't really pile on the pressure, which is good news for Avalanche player Martin Necas. This suggests he might not hit that 2.5 shots mark easily.
Martin Necas has a tough matchup against a Blues team that allows fewer shots than they take. While he's a talented player, this could be a game where he doesn't get many chances. There's a real chance he ends up with fewer than 2.5 shots on goal, so taking the under here makes sense.
