Here's a breakdown of why I like each bet.
1. Jonathan Marchessault – Any Time Goal Scorer (+180)
Why pivot away from something that i sn't broken? Jonathan Marchessault has been an offensive dynamo to begin the Stanley Cup Final, scoring in each of the first three matchups for a total of four goals. Marchessault has now amassed 11 goals in his last 10 postseason games, proving that he's a threat to score any time he touches the ice. With his also averaging the fourth-most ice time among Vegas forwards in this series, look for Marchessault to light the lamp again tonight.
2. Matthew Tkachuk – Record 2+ Points (+164)
Matthew Tkachuk stepped up to lead his Panthers to victory in Game 3. He tallied an assist on the opening goal and even scored the game-tying marker giving him his second two-point effort in the l ast four games. It's not like a multi-point showing is an anomaly for Tkachuk, too. On top of recording two-plus points seven times in the postseason, he's also finished with multiple points 25 times at FLA Live Arena between the 2022-23 regular season and playoffs. Doing what he can to help Florida tie the series, don't be shocked if Tkachuk has another night to remember.
3. Mark Stone – Shots on Goal: Over 2.5 (-102)
Golden Knights captain Mark Stone heads into Game 4 with a projected shot total of 2.5, which is surprising, to say the least. The veteran winger has had zero issues clearing that number recently, hitting the Over in each of his last five games while avera ging 3.8 shots on goal over that span. It's hard to imagine him falling off any time soon considering that on the second line and first power-play unit while playing at least 19 minutes in Games 1 through 3.
