Avalanche vs. Stars Player Props: Game 7 Odds & NHL Expert Picks for Saturday, May 3

The only thing better than the Stanley Cup playoffs is a seventh and deciding, win-or-go home affair, and that's exactly what our Avalanche vs. Stars player props are looking at.

With such razor-edge margins between the Stanley Cup odds contenders, it's a fitting scenario for the Stars and Avalanche. 

These NHL picks feature Roope Hintz, Jamie Benn, and Artturi Lehkonen. Despite winning two of three at American Airlines Center, the Stars are the home underdogs. The puck drops on the decider at 8 p.m. ET from Dallas (ABC).

🚨 Roope Hintz Over 0.5 assists ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Hintz was an absolute killer in Colorado for Game 6, scoring four points (two goals, two assists) and firing five shots on goal. He was unlucky not to have led the Stars to a series-clinching road win, undone by the flukiest goal Nathan MacKinnon will ever score. Hintz has three assists in the last two games after failing to notch one in the first four. 

But he's on fire, and I'm a massive proponent of going with the hot hand, as it pays dividends more often than not. I'd prefer to lock in Hintz to score a point, but those odds at our best NHL betting sites are too short (-155), so I'm banking on him getting a helper. A winning $10 bet at DraftKings and bet365 will profit $14.50.

🚨 Jamie Benn Over 1.5 shots ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Benn had four shots in Game 2 when I last bet this prop. While I don't expect him to be that productive, especially in a Game 7 when open ice is even harder to come by, he should get at least two shots. He's a big game player, and there are none more important than Game 7. Benn hit the Over in two of three games, with the opener - notoriously woeful for him and the Stars - the only exclusion. 

He also hit the Over in his previous two Game 7's. bet365 offers the best price, as a $10 bet will profit $10.50.

🚨 Artturi Lehkonen Over 0.5 points ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lehkonen has four points thus far, scoring at least one point in four games. While that's a pretty good start, I'm more compelled by his output in Dallas, where he scored a point in all three tilts. Excluding Benn's low 1.5 total, I've veered away from shot props as they are more challenging to come by in Game 7's.

While playing with MacKinnon and Martin Necas helps, Lehkonen has been all over it at American Airlines Center. A winning $10 bet at BetMGM will profit $8.
