The picks
3 picksPicks are opinions, not guarantees. Odds may have moved since publishing.
I went through all 12 games on Saturday, November 7, looking for the best anytime goal props on the board. The picks below are ranked by PropFinder's Goalscorer Matchups score, which blends a skater's own scoring form with how much the opposing defense and goalie give up.
Scores run from 0 to 100, and 50 is league average, so anything well above that is a real strength. Here are the top three shooters for tonight and the prices I would take.
Leon Draisaitl to score a goal (-125, Hard Rock)
Leon Draisaitl
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Leevi Merilainen (Expected)
Leon Draisaitl brings a 98 form score into this one, and the numbers back it up. He has 14 goals in 17 games, well ahead of his 8.90 expected goals, on 3.65 shots and 1.29 individual high-danger chances per game. He plays 21:42 a night, including 4.04 minutes on the power play, which keeps his workload high.
The matchup is just as good, with an 87 matchup score. Vancouver allows right wingers 9.00 scoring chances, 4.89 high-danger chances, 8.44 shots and 1.72 goals per game. Leevi Merilainen is the expected starter with a .889 save percentage over 12 games. The best price is -125 at Hard Rock, better than the -141 median across 11 books. An elite shooter against a soft defense is the case here.
Sebastian Aho to score a goal (+153, Novig)
Sebastian Aho
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Spencer Knight (Expected)
Sebastian Aho has a 94 form score with 9 goals in 18 games, right in line with his 8.18 expected goals. He averages 2.94 shots and 1.56 individual high-danger chances per game, and plays 20:05 a night with 3.98 minutes on the power play. The chances he creates drive the score, and the goals have followed them.
Chicago is a soft spot for centers, giving up 9.76 scoring chances, 4.47 high-danger chances, 7.71 shots and 1.18 goals per game. Spencer Knight is the expected starter with a .892 save percentage over 13 games. The best price is +153 at Novig, above the +142 median across 8 books. A high-volume center against a leaky defense at plus money is a good spot.
Wyatt Johnston to score a goal (+127, Novig)
Wyatt Johnston
Anytime Goalscorer
Opposing goalie: Alex Nedeljkovic (Expected)
Wyatt Johnston has a 90 form score, even though his 3 goals in 14 games sit well below his 7.09 expected goals. The finishing has lagged the chances. He averages 2.57 shots and 1.93 individual high-danger chances per game, with 19:53 of ice time and 3.16 minutes on the power play. The process is strong, and the goals have not matched it yet.
San Jose gives centers 9.94 scoring chances, 5.28 high-danger chances, 8.17 shots and 1.00 goals per game, good for an 84 matchup score. Alex Nedeljkovic is the expected starter with a .899 save percentage, though that comes from only 6 games. The best price is +127 at Novig against a +120 median across 10 books. Heavy chance volume and a soft defense make the plus money appealing.
