Alex Lyon (Buffalo Sabres) Under 27.5 Saves (-115)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
Pull up a chair, folks, because we've got a fascinating look at the Buffalo Sabres' goal-tending maestro, Alex Lyon, on deck. This guy's been tighter than a clamshell in his recent away games, letting just 1.6 goals slip past on average. He's been busy too, stopping an impressive 29.4 shots per game. Now, normally, a goalie that active might have us thinking twice about betting the under on total saves. But here's where it gets intriguing: Lyon's overall average of saves is a mere 21.2. Seems like he's been less busy when you take into account all recent games. With the Sabres facing off against the Anaheim Ducks - a team not exactly known for peppering adversaries with shots - we're feeling pretty confident Lyon won't be breaking a sweat with more than 27.5 saves. So, let's target that under and watch the drama unfold.
