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.

The rationale for betting on the Winnipeg Jets with a 1.5 puck line advantage is supported by a few key statistics. Despite a recent home record of 1-4, the Jets have shown a relatively strong defensive record on their own turf. They've allowed an average of 2.8 goals against per home game. Meanwhile, the Oilers' away stats show an average of 1.4 goals scored per game, which is lower than the Jets' goals against average. This suggests the Oilers may struggle to overcome the 1.5 goal handicap. Furthermore, the Jets have a track record of keeping games close against the Oilers, evidenced by their 2-3 record in the last five matches. Therefore, it seems statistically plausible that Winnipeg can keep the game within the 1.5 puck line, making this bet an attractive option.
