Best NHL Player Props for November 10
Matthew Tkachuk 1+ Assist (-125)
Tkachuk already torched the Blue Jackets once this season, racking up a whopping five assists on Oct. 13, with four of them coming on the power play. The 28-year-old’s 22 assists rank second in the NHL behind only Connor McDavid, and he has notched at least one in 11 of his 18 games, including in each of his past four outings.
Florida’s power play converts at 23.5% (10th), Columbus’ penalty kill ranks 21st (75.6%), and 14 of Tkachuk’s 26 points have come while on the man advantage. Among 593 skaters with at least 100 minutes of ice time, his 2.11 primary assists per 60 are tied for fourth. Columbus also ranks first in 5v5 high-danger shots allowed per 60 (2.48). His line with Brady Tkachuk and Sam Bennett owns a 61.7% 5v5 Corsi% in 124 minutes together, too, so the looks should be there tonight.
Jesper Bratt 1+ Assist (-115)
Nico Daws is the expected starter tonight against his former team for just his second start with Winnipeg, after stopping 33 of 37 shots in a 5-2 loss to the Panthers on Oct. 30. Across his starts with both clubs this season, his -2.2 GSAx and -0.83% SV% above expected rank 57th and 56th, respectively, among 75 goaltenders. The Jets have also allowed 3.85 goals per 60 over their past 10 games, sixth-most in the NHL.
Bratt has picked up an assist in five straight games and eight of his past 10 outings, and his 15 apples trail only Jack Hughes for the team lead. He ranks seventh in secondary assists per 60 (1.72) among skaters with 100+ minutes, and the Bratt-Hughes-Gritsyuk line has outscored opponents 11-3 in 151 minutes at 5v5 while controlling 63.8% of the xGoals. With the Devils riding a five-game winning streak, I’d expect Bratt to stay involved on a line that has been humming.
Alex DeBrincat 4+ Shots on Goal (+125)
St. Louis has been rather generous with shooting lanes lately, allowing 44.79 unblocked shot attempts per 60 at 5v5 over its past 10 games, the second-most in the NHL. The Blues also give up 7.4 shots on goal per game to right wingers, tied for the sixth-most, and that is exactly where DeBrincat lines up on Detroit’s top line and first power-play unit.
DeBrincat was held to two shots on goal on Saturday against Colorado, but he has still totaled 4+ shots in six of his past 10 games and five of his eight road outings. His 66 shots on goal lead the Red Wings and are tied for ninth in the NHL, and among skaters with 100+ minutes, he ranks 10th in shots on goal per 60 (11.13) and sixth in shot attempts per 60 (23.44). The plus-money price on a high-volume shooter is tough to pass up.
