Best NHL Anytime Goal Scorer Picks for November 13
Tye Kartye Anytime Goal Scorer (+300)
Leevi Merilainen will likely get the start in net for Vancouver, and his .889 SV% and 3.41 GAA don’t exactly jump off the page. His -2.3 GSAx and -0.32% SV% above expected rank 58th and 49th, respectively, among 76 goaltenders, and he doesn’t get much help in front of him, either. The Canucks allow 4.47 goals per 60 in all situations, the most in the NHL, and their 3.45 goals against per 60 at 5v5 rank second-most.
Kartye found the back of the net twice when these teams met on Oct. 11, and he has scored in five of his past 10 games, with his seven goals sitting second on the Rangers behind Alexis Lafreniere. Wednesday’s goal in Calgary was an empty-netter, but his role has steadily increased, as the 25-year-old has logged at least 17 minutes in each of his past seven outings after not reaching that mark once across his first 13. The Kartye-Miller-Dorofeyev line has controlled 60.2% of the 5v5 xGoals but has been outscored 7-4 in 102 minutes, and it has to be bound for some puck luck soon. At +300 against this defense, I’ll take the flier.
Steven Stamkos Anytime Goal Scorer (+180)
Stamkos was held off the scoresheet with just one shot when Vegas beat Nashville 5-2 on Oct. 13, but he has been in goalscoring mode since. The 36-year-old has scored in six of his past 10 outings, totaling seven goals over that stretch, and his 11 goals and six power-play goals both lead the Predators. He has also scored in four of his eight road games, including Wednesday’s 4-2 win in Anaheim.
The man advantage is the juiciest part of this matchup, as Nashville’s power play ranks eighth (26.6%) while Vegas’ penalty kill ranks T-18th (76.9%). Stamkos skates on the first unit, and his 1.87 goals per 60 rank T-13th among 602 skaters with at least 100 minutes of ice time. Those 11 goals have come on 7.25 xGoals, so some regression is likely coming soon, but Adin Hill is still gettable at times, and he will likely get the start. He has a .903 SV% and 2.54 GAA, while his +2.3 GSAx and +0.45% SV% above expected rank 18th and 21st, respectively.
