The picks
3 picksPicks are opinions, not guarantees. Odds may have moved since publishing.
I went through all three games on Friday, November 6, and ranked every skater with an anytime goal price by PropFinder's Goalscorer Matchups score. It blends a skater's own scoring form with how much the opposing defense and goalie give up, and every score runs from 0 to 100 with 50 as league average.
Here are the three highest-rated anytime goal props on tonight's slate, with the best price I found for each.
Kirill Kaprizov to score a goal (-110, bet365)
Kirill Kaprizov
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Yaroslav Askarov (Expected)
Kirill Kaprizov has 15 goals in 17 games for Minnesota, 0.88 per game, and his 98 form score reflects real volume behind the production. He takes 3.12 shots and 1.53 individual high-danger chances per game, and he plays about 21.7 minutes a night including 4.23 minutes on the power play. His expected goals total is 7.27, so he is finishing far above expectation with a 17.0% shooting percentage. Some of that pace may cool, but the chances and power-play role are real.
San Jose allows left wingers 8.53 scoring chances, 4.94 high-danger chances, 7.12 shots and 1.00 goals per game, which adds up to a 79 matchup score. The Sharks are expected to start Yaroslav Askarov, who has a .887 save percentage in 11 games. Kaprizov's best price is -110 at bet365, better than the -129 median across 11 books. An elite shooter against a soft defense and a shaky goalie at near even money is the case.
Cutter Gauthier to score a goal (+150, bet365)
Cutter Gauthier
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Dustin Wolf (Expected)
Cutter Gauthier has 11 goals in 15 games for Anaheim, 0.73 per game, on 62 shots, or 4.13 per game. He generates 0.93 individual high-danger chances per game and plays about 18 minutes a night, with 4.05 of them on the power play. His expected goals total is 6.15, so he is scoring well above expectation with a 14.1% shooting percentage, and some regression is possible. The 93 form score is built on that shot volume and power-play role.
Calgary allows left wingers 7.81 scoring chances, 3.81 high-danger chances, 7.00 shots and 0.94 goals per game, good for a 77 matchup score. Dustin Wolf is expected in goal for the Flames with a .870 save percentage over nine games. Gauthier's best price is +150 at bet365, above the +138 median across 10 books. A high-volume shooter facing a struggling goalie at plus money is the case.
Matt Boldy to score a goal (+127, Novig)
Matt Boldy
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Yaroslav Askarov (Expected)
Matt Boldy has 7 goals in 17 games for Minnesota, only 0.41 per game, but his 95 form score comes from volume. He takes 4.24 shots and 1.18 individual high-danger chances per game, and he plays about 21.6 minutes a night with 4.24 minutes on the power play. His expected goals total is 7.15, so his seven goals match what his chances suggest, and his 14.2% shooting percentage is not inflated. If anything, the goals have been light relative to the looks.
San Jose allows right wingers 8.71 scoring chances, 3.82 high-danger chances, 6.76 shots and 1.00 goals per game, for a 68 matchup score. Yaroslav Askarov is expected in goal at a .887 save percentage over 11 games. Boldy's best price is +127 at Novig, slightly better than the +123 median across 11 books. Plus money on a high-volume shooter in the same soft matchup as Kaprizov is the case.
