With an average of 5.2 shots on goal in his last 5 games and a line of 3.5 shots on goal in the upcoming game against Ottawa, John Tavares looks to outshoot the Senators.

The Toronto Maple Leafs will be taking on the Ottawa Senators on Friday, and the matchup is sure to be an exciting one. Among the players to watch will be John Tavares, the Leafs’ leading scorer and a consistently dominant presence on the ice.

Tavares’s shooting ability is one of his most impressive attributes, and he has been outshooting his opponents all season. He is currently averaging 3.61 shots on goal per game, with an even higher average at the Scotiabank Arena, where he has 3.18 shots on goal per game. In total, Tavares has had more than 3.5 shots on goal in 20 games this season and less than 3.5 shots on goal in 29 games.

The past 20 games have been particularly impressive for Tavares, as he has averaged 4.0 shots on goal over that stretch and had more than 3.5 shots on goal in 9 of those games. His recent performances have been even more impressive, with an average of 5.1 shots on goal in the last 10 games and more than 3.5 shots on goal in 6 of those games. Over the last 5 games, Tavares has been even better, averaging 5.2 shots on goal and having more than 3.5 shots on goal in 3 of those games.

In the one game he has played against Ottawa this season, Tavares has not scored any goals. However, this game will take place at home, which could give Tavares the edge he needs to outshoot the Senators. Based on his recent form, I believe Tavares should exceed the 3.5 shots on goal line, making the over the smart pick for the upcoming matchup.
