Kraken vs. Lightning Preview
Action PRO projects John Carlson for 2.04 shots on goal against the Kraken tonight, giving us a solid 8.1% edge when compared to his current prop line of over/under 2.5, which is good enough to tag the under with a B- grade in our system.
The Lightning defenseman has 18 SOGs this season over six contests, but his numbers are inflated by an incredible 9-shot game against the Wild last Thursday.
Carlson has gone under this line in three of his last five games, with just one shot or none at all in those matchups.
We can fade him tonight on his SOG line against Seattle.
Best Bet: John Carlson Under 2.5 Shots on Goal (-140, FanDuel)
