You have to look pretty deep into the odds to find some of the best prop betting options, but they are out there. Here are five of the best NHL player prop picks to make for Saturday, December 10th.

Tage Thompson Under 0.5 Points (+155)

Sabres vs. Penguins Predictions

Tage Thompson recently scored five goals in a game for the Buffalo Sabres and he is emerging into a superstar. While that performance was impressive, Thompson still has to prove that he can do it on a nightly basis against the best teams in the league.

The Pittsburgh Penguins aren’t going to make life easy on Thompson on Saturday night and they will keep him off of the scoresheet. Take the under 0.5 points, as there is little action for Thompson in this game.

NHL Odds

Cole Caufield Under 3.5 Shots on Goal (-130)

Kings vs. Canadiens Predictions

The Montreal Canadiens have been much better than expected this season and Cole Caufield is a big reason why. Caufield has scored 15 goals on the season and his teammates are always looking for him in the offensive zone.

The Canadiens are facing a Los Angeles Kings team that is loaded with veterans and knows how to get some stops. Take the under 3.5 shots on goal for the young superstar in Montreal.

Auston Matthews Over 1.5 Points (+185)

Flames vs. Maple Leafs Predictions

Auston Matthews is one of the most talented players in the NHL this season, but he is having a relatively down year. His teammates in Toronto have stepped up for him, though, as they are currently in second place in the Atlantic Division.

Just because Matthews has struggled up to this point, it doesn’t mean that the trend will continue for long. Take the over 1.5 points for Matthews as he finds a way to score some points in this game.

NHL Picks

Mathew Barzal Over 2.5 SOG (+116)

Hurricanes vs. Islanders Predictions

The New York Islanders host the Carolina Hurricanes for an important game on Saturday night. Both teams are currently in the top four in the Metropolitan Division and it should set up for a great show.

Mathew Barzal is having a big year for New York and he will look to be aggressive in this game. Take Barzal to record at least three shots on goal in this game as he tries to spark the Islanders.

Kirill Kaprizov Over 1.5 Points (+130)

Wild vs. Canucks Predictions

After a slow start to the season, the Minnesota Wild have started to get things heading in the right direction. Part of that is the fact that Kirill Kaprizov has started to turn it around on offense and he leads the team with 34 points on the year.

Minnesota are in Vancouver to face a Canucks team that has struggled and it should be a big offensive night. Take Kaprizov to record over 1.5 points in this game with odds set at +130.
