Bruins vs. Kings Preview
Action PRO projects Elias Lindholm for 1.44 shots on goal tonight against the Kings, giving us a 7.8% edge when compared to his current prop line of over/under 1.5, which is good enough to tag the under with a B- grade in our system.
The Bruins center has 11 SOGs across seven contests, but most of that was in the first three games, as he had five in their opener against Winnipeg, and then two shots in each matchup vs. Minnesota and Ottawa.
As you can see, Lindholm has gone under this 1.5 line in the past four games.
At even money, let's fade him tonight on his SOG line against Los Angeles.
Best Bet: Elias Lindholm Under 1.5 SOG (+100, DraftKings)
