After nearly the entire NHL was in action last night, we have a light 4-game slate on tap for tonight. Given that 28 teams were on the ice, that means we also have teams on back-to-backs. That can make the betting markets a bit trickier to navigate, which is why we want to take advantage of the prop markets. Both of our NHL prop bet picks are focused on matchups with teams on back-to-backs, so let' s dive in.
Along with our best NHL player props, be sure to check out all of our NHL picks for today's action.
Sebastian Aho over 2.5 shots on goal (-135)

Interestingly enough, three of the four games tonight have late start times, but we aren't going to make you wait that long. The early puck drop takes place in Carolina with the Hurricanes hosting the Montreal Canadiens. It's actually the 'Canes on a back-to-back, yet we're targeting them. That shouldn't be too surprising, as the Habs have been struggling for a few seasons now.
