Timo Meier anytime goal scorer (+185)

Timo Meier finally got on the score sheet on Sunday with his first goal and point of the playoffs. There was plenty of noise around the lack of production from a high-valued trade target in the middle of the regular season. Meier got the monkey off his back and now will look to ramp up the production having now broken through with his first goal this postseason. This is not some depth role player. The reason there was some noise around a lack of production is that Timo Meier had 40 goals and 66 points in 78 games played during the regular season. A 40-goal season is impressive enough but is even more so considering the majority of that production was on the 4th'worst team in the league with almost no help.

Any chance of scoring Meier would have otherwise is amplified by being on a great line. He is currently the left winger on a line with star Jack Hughes and Dawson Mercer. Meier is also on the top power play with Hughes, Nico Hischier, Jesper Bratt, and Dougie Hamilton. There will be plenty of offense generated with these guys and then some. With that, there is a great chance that Timo Meier gets opportunities to score or at the very least make a play. He can play a little more loose now and get back to the style that led to him netting 40 goals during the season. This has been a very high-scoring series. If averages hold, then offense will continue to be a trend and Meier's +185 odds to score look great.
