The picks

I went through all 3 games on Friday, October 30 and ranked every skater with an anytime goal price using PropFinder's Goalscorer Matchups score. It blends a skater's own scoring form with how much the opponent's defense and goalie give up. Scores run from 0 to 100, and 50 is league average.
Tonight's slate is led by the Florida Panthers, who host Winnipeg and take all three spots. Here are the top anytime goalscorer props, in order.
Sam Reinhart to score a goal (+160, FanDuel)
Sam Reinhart
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Nico Daws (Expected)
Sam Reinhart brings a 96 form score into this one. He has 6 goals in 13 games, and his 5.93 expected goals say that production is right in line with his chances. He fires 3.00 shots per game and generates 1.62 high-danger chances per game on about 20 minutes of ice time, including 5.43 minutes a night on the power play, which is where much of his threat comes from.
The matchup is strong, a 77 matchup score. Winnipeg allows opposing centers 8.15 scoring chances, 4.08 high-danger chances, 7.00 shots and 1.23 goals per game. The Jets are expected to start Nico Daws, who has a .885 save percentage over just 5 games, so the sample is small. FanDuel has Reinhart at +160, ahead of the +149 median across 12 books. Elite form against a leaky defense makes him the top play.
Carter Verhaeghe to score a goal (+195, FanDuel)
Carter Verhaeghe
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Nico Daws (Expected)
Carter Verhaeghe owns a 91 form score and has been finishing at a high level: 8 goals in 13 games on 4.08 expected goals, a 14.2% shooting percentage. That finishing run could cool off, since he takes only 1.77 shots and 0.85 high-danger chances per game. He plays about 18 minutes a night, with 3.96 of them on the power play.
His matchup score is 69, above average. Winnipeg gives up 7.46 scoring chances, 3.69 high-danger chances, 6.62 shots and 0.92 goals per game to left wingers, and Nico Daws, expected in goal, has a .885 save percentage in 5 games, so treat that number with caution. FanDuel offers +195, better than the +180 median across 11 books. The power play time and a soft goalie make the longer price worth taking.
Brady Tkachuk to score a goal (+140, BetMGM)
Brady Tkachuk
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Nico Daws (Expected)
Brady Tkachuk is the volume shooter of the three, with an 89 form score built on 3.08 shots and 2.00 high-danger chances per game. He has 8 goals in 13 games against 5.84 expected goals, a 11.5% shooting percentage, so he has run a bit hot but not wildly so. He skates about 16:32 a night, including 4.69 minutes on the power play.
The matchup score is 69. Winnipeg allows left wingers 7.46 scoring chances, 3.69 high-danger chances, 6.62 shots and 0.92 goals per game, and Nico Daws, expected to start, sits at .885 over 5 games, a small sample. BetMGM has the best price at +140, compared with a +120 median across 11 books. Heavy shot volume against a shaky goalie is a solid case for the shortest price of the trio.
