We have six games on the docket Tuesday, which means there are plenty of player props to comb through.
Let's take a closer look at two of my favorites.
Jordan Eberle over 2.5 shots (+105)
On the surface, the Islanders are not a team you would perceive to be a good prop target for shots against. But perception tells a different story than reality.
At five-on-five, they have given up 60.33 shot attempts per 60 minutes over their last 10 road dates. That's one of the NHL's worst rates, slotting them 27th in that span. They give up plenty of volume when they can't control the matchups.
Also working in Eberle's favor: The Islanders struggle to defend against right-wingers. Only five teams concede more shots per game to the position.
Eberle's raw shot volume is also higher at home and - if you're into narratives - there's the revenge factor for Eberle. The Kraken forward has faced the Islanders once already but, in a season that's otherwise lost, a matchup against the team that exposed him in the expansion draft could provide a little extra motivation.
Aaron Ekblad over 2.5 shots (-148)
Aaron Ekblad, like his Panthers as a whole, is particularly lethal when playing on home soil.
Ekblad has averaged 3.3 shots on goal per game in Florida this season, which has allowed him to go over the number 19 times in 25 tries. That's a remarkable 76% hit rate.
What's even more impressive is Ekblad started the season somewhat slowly, hitting in four of his first seven at home. Since then, he has registered at least three shots in 15 of 18, which is a ridiculous 83.33% hit rate.
The Predators are a solid team but definitely not one we have to avoid, especially when away from home. Nashville ranks 27th in shot suppression at five-on-five over its last 10 road dates.
Ekblad should have no problem taking advantage of this matchup.
