I.Demidov u1.5 SOG+120

$1.20

Demidov has seen his shots go up in his last 10 games, but still only to 1.8 a game compared to 1.54 on the season, but still I don't think that's enough to not like this line. Demidov has been under 1.5 shots in 42/78 games this season, and he is facing one of the best teams in the league tonight.
