Flyers vs Devils prediction
Flyers vs Devils best bet: Travis Sanheim Over 1.5 blocked shots (-125)
Travis Sanheim ranks 18th among all defensemen with 141 blocks. He has generated them consistently, averaging a hair under two per game while clearing this line 61% of the time.
His success rate jumps to 70% when isolating matchups with teams ranking inside the Top-10 in shot generation. The New Jersey Devils rank fourth.
Sanheim blocked multiple shots in both meetings with the Devils this season and in eight consecutive games against the Metro Division rivals.
He is averaging more than 24 minutes per game, giving him plenty of time to fill shooting lanes and block a couple shots.
Flyers vs Devils same-game parlay
Porter Martone has instantly become a go-to guy for the Philadelphia Flyers on offense. He’s averaged five shots on 7.5 attempts through four games and is coming off a multi-point performance in which he scored the overtime winner.
That should give him more confidence to keep shooting, and he’ll have opportunities in a pace-up spot against the Devils.
Travis Konecny has hit the scoresheet in 12 of his last 13 games vs. New Jersey and is playing opposite wing of Martone. There’s nice correlation here.
