Connor Bedard (Blackhawks vs. Jets) Goal Odds
Even when receiving minimal support from his linemates, Connor Bedard has been able to play at a high level, leading the Chicago Blackhawks in Expected Goals with an average of 0.42 while generating three Shots on Goal per game.
In a favorable matchup against the Winnipeg Jets, Bedard will be able to continue to keep the Blackhawks competitive by relentlessly attacking a back line that resides in the bottom half of the board in Expected Goals Against in All Situations. Especially with Stuart Skinner steadily regressing after a hot start to the year, giving up 3.24 Goals Against per game while averaging a Save Percentage of .886.
When in the Power Play, Bedard has been the focal point of the Blackhawks offense, leading the first unit in Shots on Goal with an average of 0.62 per penalty. With the Jets struggling to keep a body on Bedard’s hip, the Blackhawks center will be able to anchor in front of the crease, improving the quality of his shot attempts.
Timo Meier (Devils vs. Capitals) Goal Odds
Since the start of the regular season, Timo Meier has struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just three Goals in 20 starts. A stunning performance when factoring in how aggressive Meier has been in his efforts of pressuring the net, rifling off nearly four Shots on Goal per game.
Fortunately for Meier, his aggression will be rewarded in a matchup against the Washington Capitals while taking advantage of a back line that underwhelms in coverage per their below league average mark in Expected Goals Against From High Danger Shots. With the Capitals struggling to keep the puck out of the middle, Logan Thompson has been unable to wall off shots while scrambling across the ice, conceding 3.17 Goals Against per game.
In 5-on-4 Situations, Meier has been able to continue to pressure the net at a high rate, averaging nearly one Shot on Goal per penalty. With the Capitals stretched out in coverage, Meier will be able to generate a higher volume of shot attempts, increasing his chances of scoring.
Evan Bouchard (Oilers vs. Maple Leafs) Goal Odds
After a slow start to the year, Evan Bouchard has started to get into a groove, scoring four Goals while dishing out six Assists in his last six outings. With Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl pulling defensive attention towards them, Bouchard has been able to generate Shots on Goal from the blue line at a consistent rate, averaging 2.65 per game.
Heading into Saturday night’s contest against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Bouchard will be able to build on his momentum by picking apart a back line that ranks in the bottom twelve in Expected Goals Against in 5-on-5 Play. When under duress, Sergei Bobrovsky has been unable to keep a clean sheet, averaging a Save Percentage of .881.
With McDavid moving to the back line in the Oilers Power Play, Bouchard is able to play off the puck on the opposite side, giving him the ability to exploit a gap when one opens up while putting himself in a position to capitalize on a rebound.
