Best NHL Anytime Goalscorer Picks Today
Alex Tuch Anytime Goalscorer (+210)
The Capitals will face the Kings tonight, the lone winless team in the NHL, and they’re starting Darcy Kuemper between the pipes. Kuemper sports an ugly 4.53 GAA and .847 SV% across four outings, and he ranks 62nd and 60th out of 65 eligible goaltenders in goals saved above expected and SV% above expected, respectively. Enter Alex Tuch, who leads the Capitals in goals and ranks eighth in the NHL in 5v5 goals per 60. He is tied for the most shots on Washington, too, and he leads the club’s forwards in ice time per game. Tuch is the sixth-most bet player prop for tonight’s slate, and it’s hard to fade him in such a good offense vs. goaltender matchup.
Kirill Kaprizov Anytime Goalscorer (+125)
Kaprizov enters Tuesday night as the NHL’s leading goalscorer, with 10 through the Wild’s first nine outings of the season. He has scored at least once in each of his past three outings, and he ranks second and third in xGoals per 60 and goals per 60, respectively. The usually-leaky Oilers have played good defense to start the new season, allowing the 20th-most shots per game and 18th-most goals against per game. Edmonton is no stranger to high-scoring affairs, though, and if Minnesota is going to keep up offensively, Kaprizov will almost certainly be involved. He ranks first in the NHL in high-danger chances, and he’ll test what should be 24-year-old Devon Levi between the pipes.
