Nathan MacKinnon Under 1.5 points (-118) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nathan MacKinnon is having an incredible 2025-26 campaign, ranking second in the league in points.
But he only has two multi-point games across his last 10 meetings with the Golden Knights and hasn't scored against Vegas since early 2023.
MacKinnon's play this season has deservedly raised the expectations of him and the betting odds as a result. But recent history says this is a great price to get on MacKinnon being limited to one point or fewer tonight.

Mitch Marner Over 0.5 power-play points (+190) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Mitch Marner has tallied at least one power-play point in four of his last five games.
Though Colorado boasts an impressive penalty kill (85.44%), the former Maple Leaf logged an assist on the man advantage in the previous matchup against the Avalanche earlier this season.
The best sports betting sites are aligned at +190 odds on Marner picking up a power-play point tonight. I'm backing him at those odds for the chance to bring home a $19 profit on a $10 wager.
Tomas Hertl to score (+210) ⭐⭐⭐
Tomas Hertl has found the back in three of his last five games against the Avalanche, including the last time these clubs met on Halloween.
He enters tonight's matchup with a goal in two straight contests to give him 15 on the season, tied for Vegas' team lead.
And that's with him scoring six goals below expected, one of the lowest marks leaguewide, according to MoneyPuck.
