The Bets of the Day are brought to you by NHL odds site Betway!
Welcome back to another edition of the Betway Bets of the day. All bets are for one unit unless otherwise noted.
Our lone bet of the day will be taking Elias Pettersson to take over 3.5 shots on goal. These odds sit at -110.
Pettersson comes into tonight’s game against the Anaheim Ducks having taken 14 shots on goal in his last five games, the most among all Vancouver Canucks players over that time. While he’s hit the over on this prop in just one of those games, he’s had three shots twice.
He has a great matchup tonight and as you all know, we love to target the Ducks on shot props and that’s what we’re doing again here. In Anaheim’s last five games, they’ve given up 35.26 shots against per hour, the seventh-worst rate in the league over that stretch.
Look for Pettersson to lead the charge for the Canucks tonight.
