Jonathan Huberdeau Anytime Scorer (+210)
We have a heavyweight Atlantic Division tilt as the first-place Florida Panthers host the second-place Toronto Maple Leafs in what is expected to be a high-scoring game. The total for this matchup has fluctuated between 7 and 7.5, which means we are getting incredible value in one of the best forwards to find the back of the net at least once.
Jonathan Huberdeau has been scoring at an incredible pace recently as he has registered eight goals over his last 12 games. In his previous game against Toronto, Huberdeau scored two goals on seven shot attempts and should have an excellent opportunity to succeed once again.
Jack Campbell is the projected starting goaltender for the Maple Leafs and has not been the same on the road this season as his save percentage drops to 0.903. Campbell ranks just 29th amongst starting goaltenders in five-on-five goals saved above expected per 60 minutes (GSAx).
Pavel Buchnevich Anytime Scorer (+175)
We have a Central Division battle as the third-place St. Louis Blues travel to Arizona to take on the eighth-place Coyotes. In his last game against Arizona, Pavel Buchnevich scored one goal on three shots and should be able to find success once again as the Coyotes continue to implode as the season winds down.
Arizona has lost 10 of their last 11 games, with opposing teams scoring at least five goals in eight of those 10 losses. St. Louis’ offense has been on fire and should have no problem putting up at least five goals in this matchup, which means that Buchnevich will have a good chance of finding the back of the net.
Over his last 12 games, Buchnevich has collected eight goals. Buchnevich, on the first line, skates alongside one of the best facilitators in hockey, Robert Thomas, and serves as one of the triggermen on St. Louis’ first power-play unit.
Special teams should thrive against Arizona as the Coyotes currently rank 29th in the league in penalty minutes per game and 30th in penalty kill percentage.
Adrian Kempe Anytime Scorer (+120)
We have a Pacific Division showdown as the third-place Los Angeles Kings host the sixth-place Anaheim Ducks. Adrian Kempe just scored a goal against Anaheim on Tuesday night and should be able to find success once again.
Kempe has been in great form recently as he has scored six goals over his last nine games and now goes against one of the worst defenses in hockey. This season, Anaheim ranks just 22nd in the league in goals allowed per game.
Anthony Stolarz is the projected starting goaltender for the Ducks and has had a tough stretch recently. Stolarz has now allowed three or more goals in three straight starts, posting a mere 0.890 save percentage.
Best of luck!
