Nazem Kadri has hit the Over in shots on goal in three straight contests. During that span, he’s notched 17 shots on target, including seven on Sunday in Anaheim. 

Kadri is averaging 2.91 shots on goal this season. 

Kadri has three points across his previous five outings, and considering just how many opportunities he’s creating, there’s a good chance he either scores or tallies an assist tonight. 

He’s already registered two helpers in one game against the Dallas Stars this season.
