Best anytime goalscorer props for Sunday 4/19/26
Martin Necas Anytime Goalscorer (+135)
I highlighted Nathan MacKinnon in my top prop bets article, but I like Necas to find the back of the net just as much. He has found plenty of success against this Kings team, scoring at least one goal in four of the past five meetings. I’m expecting the Avs fans to be loud and for Game 1 to get out of hand rather quickly. Necas will play on the first line alongside MacKinnon and Artturi Lehkonen, two elite playmakers, and he’ll see additional opportunities to score on the man advantage. Colorado has mightily struggled to find consistency on the power play, but Los Angeles fields a very poor penalty kill unit, so this is a great spot for the Avalanche to find power play success.
Jake Guentzel Anytime Goalscorer (+175)
I am expecting Game 1 between the Lightning and Canadiens to be a goaltender battle, which makes me think goals will be limited. However, you gotta pick one, and I’m riding with Guentzel to get the job done. He ranks second on the team in goals and third in 5v5 goals, and he has found plenty of success during the last month of the regular season. The 31-year-old has his fair share of playoff experience and found more success when playing at home, too. Tampa Bay’s crowd should be buzzing, and Guentzel scored a goal in seven of the Lightning’s final 10 home games of the regular season.
Mark Stone Anytime Goalscorer (+205)
I’m not entirely sold on this Vegas team making noise in the postseason, but it certainly has the advantage in playoff experience and veteran leadership in this round. Jack Eichel is a great choice here, too, but I’m leaning toward Stone. He scored at least one goal in four of the final six games of the season, and Utah’s goaltending has fallen off a cliff over the past month or so. The Mammoth have allowed the eighth-most goals against per 60 across their last 10 games, and that ranking falls to fifth strictly at 5v5 play. Stone ranks second on the Golden Knights in both total goals and 5v5 goals per 60.
