Detailed Insights on Each Prop

  1. Nikolaj Ehlers | Over 2.5 shots at -110 (BET99)

    Despite taking 17 shots recently, Carolina’s Ehlers has only managed five successful ones over his prior four games, leading to a disappointing 29.4% conversion rate. Historically, he maintains a more promising 47.2% rate through the season’s first 64 games, and with the Toronto Maple Leafs allowing the highest average shots against at 32.2 per game, an uptick in his shot count seems imminent.

  2. Logan Thompson | Over 25.5 saves at -130 (BET99)

    The Capitals’ starting goalie, Thompson, is on a roll, boasting a .923 save percentage and providing 15.55 goals saved beyond expectations in his last nine outings. After recent performances where he saved 34 and 32 shots respectively, it’s likely he will add to his tally against the New Jersey Devils, who average 30 shots per game.

  3. Valeri Nichushkin | Over 0.5 points at -125 (BET99)

    Nichushkin has been skating on the first line alongside Nathan MacKinnon and Martin Necas but has yet to find his offensive rhythm, producing just 1.31 expected goals with a robust 67.4 Corsi For percentage over the last two games. As the Avalanche prepare to face the Chicago Blackhawks, who allow an average of 3.13 goals per game, Nichushkin seems primed to contribute offensively.
