The NHL took a couple of days off this week but is now back in full force. After blank slates on Tuesday and Thursday, there were 14 games on Wednesday and now 15 games on Friday. Today will be a fantastic day of hockey beginning in the afternoon and going all through the night. Hopefully you do not have to work and can soak in every bit of the action. If you have work or any obligations, hopefully you ca n knock them out in enough time to take in this loaded slate.
You can also find out our NHL predictions for every game today, but for now, let’s dive into my best NHL prop bets.
William Nylander over 0.5 goals (-115)
William Nylander has had himself a week. He was already having a great season. Then he took the hockey world by storm by showing out in his home country of Sweden during last week's global series. With a stellar performance overseas, Nylander now has a 17-game point streak ot start the season. He leads the Maple Leafs with 27 points and has 12 goals just a month and a half into the season.
This is a great player playing on a great team with great players that has a great matchup on Friday. How does that sound? The Blackahwks have been a punching bag and represent a great opportunity for players to pad stats. Nylander consistently plays with fellow top players in the NHL. Every shift, there is potential for production. The Maple Leafs are have a great chance to run up the score. If they do, until he proves otherwise, Nylander has a great chance to contribute to the production.
