Pick #5: Matt Duchene Over 2.5 SOG (-135)

The Avs game out swinging in game 1 of the 1st round and Nashville didn't have an answer in the first period. After that first period, though the Preds woke up and played a good game going toe to toe, it was just too late. Duchene had a good game against the Avs in that game with a goal and 4 SOG. I expect the Preds to come out with intensity from the start in this one and lots of shots to be had. Duchene has hit this in 8 of the last 10 and in all four games he has played against the Preds. I look for him to be aggressive again. 

Another pick in this game I like is Gabriel Landeskog Over 2.5 SOG (-145) 

Gabe has hit this in 7 of the last 10 and for the same reasons as stated above, I believe lots of shots and aggressiveness in this game. Gabe had 5 SOG in the first game agains the Preds and 7 in the last game of the regular season against Calgary. I am taking the over.
