Timo Meier over 3.5 shots (+155)
Line available at DraftKings at time of publishing
San Jose’s Timo Meier is putting a ton of shots on net. He has registered 66 shots on goal through 15 games this season for an average of 4.4 shots per game. His 66 shots rank 20th in all of hockey, and he has put 7, 4, and 6 shots on net in his last 3 games. In addition, he has reached at least 4 shots in 5 of his last 7 contests. San Jose’s offense tends to go as he goes, so look for Meier to stay aggressive in tonight’s matchup against Chicago.
The Blackhawks are allowing 32.4 shots per game to their opponents, which ranks 21st in the league. They have allowed a total of 8 goals over their last 2 games, so San Jose’s offense should be looking to create pressure early and often. Meier is seeing plenty of ice time on San Jose’s top line, and he also mans their top power play unit. There is plenty of value with +155 odds, so consider backing the over on Meier’s shot total prop tonight.
