Best NHL Goalscorer Props Today: Anytime Goal Picks for Monday, November 2

I went through all 4 games on the NHL slate for Monday, November 2, and ranked every skater with an anytime goal line using PropFinder's Goalscorer Matchups score. It blends a skater's own scoring form with how much the opposing defense and goalie give up.

All scores run from 0 to 100, where 50 is league average. Here are the three highest-rated anytime goal props on tonight's board.

Macklin Celebrini to score a goal (+130, Novig)

ANYTIME GOALSCORERCGY@SJ· Nov 2, 9:00 PM ET

Macklin Celebrini

Anytime Goalscorer

Opposing goalie: Dustin Wolf (Expected)

Bet now+130

Macklin Celebrini has 5 goals in 13 games for the Sharks and carries a 96 form score. He averages 4 shots and 0.77 individual high-danger chances per game, and his 6.15 expected goals sit a little above his 5 goals, so he has been slightly unlucky rather than hot. He plays about 23 minutes a night, including roughly 4 minutes on the power play, which keeps his volume high.

Calgary allows centers 8.21 scoring chances, 4.07 high-danger chances, 7.43 shots and 1.07 goals per game, good for an 80 matchup score. The Flames are expected to start Dustin Wolf, who has stopped just .847 of shots over 7 games. Novig has Celebrini at +130, better than the +116 median across 11 books. A top-line center on the power play against a leaky goalie is a fair price at plus money.

Nathan MacKinnon to score a goal (+113, Novig)

ANYTIME GOALSCORERCOL@CHI· Nov 2, 8:00 PM ET

Nathan MacKinnon

Anytime Goalscorer

Opposing goalie: Spencer Knight (Expected)

Bet now+113

Nathan MacKinnon has 9 goals in 14 games for the Avalanche, well ahead of his 5.45 expected goals, so some regression is possible. The volume is real, though: 4.07 shots and 0.86 individual high-danger chances per game, with about 21 minutes of ice time and roughly 4 minutes on the power play. That adds up to a 95 form score.

Chicago gives centers 10.14 scoring chances, 4.93 high-danger chances, 7.86 shots and 1.21 goals per game, which drives an 80 matchup score. Spencer Knight is expected in net for the Blackhawks with a .897 save percentage over 11 games, so the goalie is not the weak link here; the soft defense is. Novig lists MacKinnon at +113, above the +103 median across 11 books. Elite form against a defense that leaks chances makes the case for this pick.

Will Smith to score a goal (+208, Novig)

ANYTIME GOALSCORERCGY@SJ· Nov 2, 9:00 PM ET

Will Smith

Anytime Goalscorer

Opposing goalie: Dustin Wolf (Expected)

Bet now+208

Will Smith has 6 goals in 15 games for the Sharks, right in line with his 5.71 expected goals, and carries a 91 form score. He shoots less than most scorers at 2.73 per game, but he generates 1.00 individual high-danger chances per game and plays 19:12 a night with nearly 4 minutes on the power play. His quality of looks is what drives the number.

Calgary allows right wingers 8.14 scoring chances, 3.43 high-danger chances, 7.29 shots and 0.93 goals per game. That is a 67 matchup score, a clear plus. Dustin Wolf is expected in goal with a .847 save percentage. Novig has Smith at +208, just above the +200 median across 11 books. The price is long enough to reward a player who stands to benefit from the same soft Flames goaltending as Celebrini.
