There are a pair of NHL games set for Tuesday, May 24. These e games will provide plenty of betting opportunities. The New York Rangers host the Carolina Hurricanes in one game. The Edmonton Oilers host the Calgary Flames in the other.
There is a lot riding on each game, and all four teams will need their best players to step up. With that in mind, taking a look at player prop betting options is a great opportunity.
Here are five of the best player prop picks for Tuesday, May 24.
Artemi Panarin Over 0.5 Power Play Points (+170)
The New York Rangers need a win on Tuesday night to even the series at two games apiece. If New York is going to find a way to beat Carolina, Artemi Panarin needs to be a star.
Panarin led the team with points during the regular season, and he is always dangerous on the power play. There are some pretty good odds for Panarin to pick up a point on the power play. Taking him at +170 to get it done is a great player prop betting option.
Chris Kreider Over 2.5 SOG (-130)
Chris Kreider is another member of the Rangers that needs to step up on Tuesday night. He should be aggressive on the offensive end. Kreider doesn’t always do a ton of scoring for New York, but he is someone that can get shots on the net.
The entire Rangers team is going to be aggressive in this game. Kreider will record at least three shots on goal.

Teuvo Teravainen Under 0.5 Points (-112)
The Carolina Hurricanes have scored just five total goals in this series. However, they still hold a 2-1 series lead. Carolina has struggled to get much offense going against New York. That should happen again on Tuesday night.
Teuvo Teravainen is one of the better offensive players for Carolina, but don’t expect much offense in this game. Bet on Teravainen to get shut out on Tuesday night, and you will find some pretty good odds with this bet.
Johnny Gaudreau Over 3.5 SOG (-104)
The Calgary Flames need to win in Edmonton on Tuesday night, or else they will be staring at a 3-1 series deficit. It’s time for Johnny Gaudreau to step up for the Flames. He has to be aggressive on the offensive end of the ice.
Getting shots on net is one way that Gaudreau can help spark his team. He should find plenty of chances in this game. Gaudreau will record at least four shots on goal, and this is a solid betting opportunity.
Connor McDavid Under 1.5 Points (+130)
The Edmonton Oilers just continue to put up ridiculous offensive numbers in the playoffs. McDavid continues to lead the way. Even though McDavid has been an absolute star, it’s always hard to predict that any NHL player will score two points in a game.
You will find great value in betting against McDavid to have a big night. The Flames are going to tighten up the defense in this game. Take the under 1.5 points for McDavid as he has a quiet night.
