Today's Best NHL Prop Bet Picks & Predictions, Saturday 10/21: Eichel continues hot start

Check out our full NHL analysis.

Jack Eichel over 1.5 points (+175)

Unsurprisingly, the Golden Knights have been stellar to start the season. They look like they have picked up right where they left off from a dominant Stanley Cup run. At 5-0-0 with a +12 goal differential, a big reason for their early success has been the steady production of Jack Eichel. In 5 games to start the season, Eichel has 3 goals and 2 assists for 5 points along with 28 shots on goal. Those 28 shots on goal come out to an average of 5.6 shots on goal per game.

Obviously, the opportunity to produce is there as evident by an impressive 5+ shots on goal per game and a point per game. Eichel centers the top line between Ivan Barbashev and Jonathan Marchessault. He is also on the top power play with Marchessault, Chandler Stephenson, Mark Stone, and Shea Theodore. Facing what should be a much weaker Blackhawks team on Saturday, the opportunity should go nowhere. Look for Eichel and the Golden Knights to have another big night. Getting +175 is generous for this spot.
