Game script: what to watch
Teams that trail tend to pile up shots late. If the Islanders fall behind, Matthew Schaefer (4.1 shots per game over the last 10, cleared 2+ shots in 8 of the last 10) is the shooter to watch.
A leading team often sits back in the third period, which can suppress its own shot totals. Research shot props with the score in mind.
If a favorite goes down early, live puck lines move fast. That is a moment to research, not to chase.
