The Bets of the Day is brought to you by NHL lines site Betway!

Welcome back to another edition of the Betway Bets of the day. All bets are for one unit unless otherwise noted.

Our first bet of the day will be taking Matt Boldy to take over 2.5 shots on goal. These odds sit at -138.

Boldy comes into tonight’s matchup against the Detroit Red Wings third in SOG among Minnesota Wild forwards with 84 in 28 games. He’s averaging 3 per game, up from the 2.4 he had in his rookie campaign last year. He’s also finding his offensive stride in the NHL. He’s up to 11 goals and 21 points in 28 games so far this season, and now has 60 points in 75 career NHL games.

Boldy has hit this prop in four of his last five games and in 17/28 games this season.

The matchup is solid tonight for Boldy against the Red Wings. In their last five games, Detroit has given up 35.67 shots against per hour in all situations.
