The Best NHL Prop Bets

T.J. Oshie Over 2.5 SOG

(+125, BetRivers)

As of Tuesday morning, I could only find a shot on goal prop for T.J. Oshie on BetRivers. Keep an eye on DraftKings and other sportsbooks using our Prop Shop as he may show up later in the afternoon. We were able to get Oshie at +150 at DK over the weekend. Oshie has goals in back-to-back games and 14 shots on goal in his three games since returning to the lineup. Oshie is getting a chance to play on the top line and first power play with injuries up front. The Anaheim Ducks are among the leaders in shot attempts and shots allowed at 5v5, and they lead the league in penalties. Maybe we’ll see more Oshie and Max Pacioretty NHL props when we hear more about the status of Alex Ovechkin.

Bonus

Dylan Strome Point (-120, DraftKings)
Alex Killorn Point (-115, DraftKings)
Mason McTavish Point (-110, DraftKings)

Jonathan Drouin Assist

(+120, Bet365)

Drouin picked up another assist Monday night to give him three in his last three games. The Avs’ winger has been on quite a run as he’s racked up 17 points in his last 16 games. 10 of those points have been assists. There’s no question Nathan MacKinnon has a lot to do with Drouin’s production of late, but these are two players who had great chemistry playing for the Halifax Mooseheads back in their day. Drouin deserves some credit for his play, and it shows in his ice time. The winger played 27:09 last night and he’s 24:17 through seven games this month. He averaged 13 minutes per game during the first two months of the season and 17:36 in December. Artturi Lehkonen remains out of the lineup as does Valeri Nichushkin. As mentioned a couple of times in the fantasy hockey waiver wire articles, Drouin is a must own player.

Bonus

Nathan MacKinnon O 4.5 SOG (-114, BetRivers)
Colorado Avalanche Moneyline (-118, DraftKings)
Claude Giroux Assist (+110, BetMGM)

Nazem Kadri Point

(-125, DraftKings Sportsbook)

Kadri checks in riding a six-game point streak, and he’s in a decent spot to extend his streak as his Flames play home to the Coyotes. Kadri has four goals and eight points over this current run, and he’s quietly picked up at least one point in 20 of his last 27 games. It helps that the Flames are starting to get contributions from three lines, which has resulted in three straight wins and victories in six of their last eight games. Kadri has 16 points in 18 home games compared to 18 points in 25 games on the road. The Flames played the Coyotes last week and they put up six goals. Yegor Sharangovich had a hat trick on six shots, and his linemates Jonathan Huberdeau and Elias Lindholm had two assists. Mikael Backlund and Blake Coleman also scored goals in the win.

Bonus

Mikael Backlund O 2.5 SOG (-143, BetRivers)
Blake Coleman Point (-105, BetMGM)
Mikael Backlund Point (-120, DraftKings)
Yegor Sharangovich O 2.5 SOG (-125, DraftKings)
Blake Coleman, Mikael Backlund Points SGP (+210, Bet365)
Sharangovich, Jonathan Huberdeau, Elias Lindholm Points SGP (+425, Bet365)
