🔎 Our NEW NHL player prop odds tool can help you find the best NHL odds across legal sportsbooks in your area!

🚨 Matthew Tkachuk Over 0.5 points (-180) ⭐⭐⭐

Tkachuk was kept off the scoresheet in Games 6 and 7 against the Toronto Maple Leafs. However, he scored a point in five of the previous six. In addition, Tkachuk copes well with Carolina's hurricanes and explodes against them like a Category-5 storm. The last time these teams met in the playoffs, the 2022-23 Eastern Conference Final, he posted a point in all four games.

Tkachuk has 10 points in the last 10 meetings with the Hurricanes.

🚨 Aleksander Barkov Over 0.5 points (-180) ⭐⭐⭐

Barkov also has a knack for turning hurricanes into comforting, warm breezes. He has 10 points in the last 10 against Carolina, including five in four 2022-23 Eastern Conference Final contests. He has a point in four of the previous six, including two helpers in Game 7 against the Maple Leafs.

🚨 Sam Bennett Over 2.5 shots (+100) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Bennett is another player who walks brazenly into the eye of the storm without a care in the world. He fired at least three shots in nine of the last 10 meetings with the Hurricanes, including all four when the Panthers accomplished the sweep.

🚨 Andrei Svechnikov Over 2.5 shots (-140) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

While Svechnikov hasn't had much success taming the Cats, he's been productive during the postseason, notching at least three shots in six of the last seven and three straight. Plus, he should be fresh and looking to put pressure on Sergei Bobrovsky from the opening puck drop.

🚨 Jackson Blake Over 1.5 shots (-140) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Blake hit this prop in seven of 10 playoff games and three of the last four, and he mustered at least two shots against the Panthers in three of the previous four.
