Mark Scheifele (Winnipeg Jets) Over 1.5 Shots On Goal (-189)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Mark Scheifele is a strong choice for the Over 1.5 'Player Shots On Goal' market, as backed by his consistent performance. His overall shots average in the last five games is 3.4, which is substantially above the line set for this bet. Although his average slightly dips to 1.8 at home, it still hovers around the required line. The model predicts that Scheifele will land 2.78 shots on goal, which substantiates the Over 1.5 bet, even after considering a standard deviation of 1.39. Moreover, Scheifele has a recent history of exceeding the bet line with a hit rate of 4 out of his last 5 games, demonstrating his ability to consistently produce results. Despite a zero hit streak at home games, his past performance and model prediction suggest a strong probability of him surpassing the 1.5 shots on goal line.
