Blues vs. Devils Player Props: Best NHL Prop Bet Picks for Nov. 26

New Jersey Devils fans are thankful for the recent play of Timo Meier and Nico Hischier, and my Blues vs. Devils player props project that to continue Wednesday when New Jersey hosts St. Louis at the Prudential Center (7 p.m. ET, ESPN+ and Sportsnet+).

The Devils are a -135 moneyline favorite in the final pre-Thanksgiving contest for both teams. Read why my NHL best bets are backing Meier and Hischier to carve up St. Louis, while the scoring struggles continue for Pavel Buchnevich and the Blues.

⬆️ Timo Meier player prop: Over 2.5 shots on goal (-170) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

After going goalless in nine straight games earlier this season, Meier has turned things around with eight points in his last 10 games. He’s coming off his fourth multi-point game of the season and has generated 2.3 expected goals in his last three games, per MoneyPuck.

Going back further, Meier has collected at least three shots on net in seven of his last 10 games and at least four in six of those contests.

FanDuel’s -170 odds return just $5.88 on a $10 bet, but I project his chances of going Over this low 2.5 shots total to be higher than the 62.96% implied probability. If you’re looking for a bigger return, FanDuel is paying +148 odds on Meier to go Over 3.5 shots as well.

⬇️ Pavel Buchnevich player prop: Under 1.5 shots on goal (-104) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Although Buchnevich has recorded assists in each of his last two games, he continues to struggle generating offense. He hasn’t scored a goal since Oct. 25, has been held pointless in 12 of his last 15 games, and hasn’t produced more than 0.4 expected goals in 11 straight outings.

Buchnevich has also gone without a shot on goal in three of his last four games, and he’s been held Under 1.5 shots in seven of his last 11.

With the Blues closing out a five-game eastern road trip during which they’ve scored just eight regulation-time goals, I don’t expect a spirited performance by Buchnevich tonight. At FanDuel’s -104 odds, we can return nearly double our money ($9.62 on a $10 bet) at an implied probability of 50.98%.

🥅 Best Blues vs. Devils anytime goal scorer prediction

🔥 Nico Hischier (+180) ⭐⭐⭐

We projected increased production from Hischier when we cashed a +200 anytime goal scorer ticket last week, and there’s no reason to stop now. The Devils' captain has stepped up in the absence of the injured Jack Hughes, scoring in three of four games with Hughes out of the lineup.

Hischier’s four goals in that span are no fluke, either. He’s generated 2.2 expected goals on 20 shot attempts in those four games, hitting the net on 13 shots. He’s also had six unblocked shot attempts from high-danger areas in his last seven games, per MoneyPuck.

FanDuel again offers the top price of the best sports betting sites. The +180 odds imply a 35.71% chance he scores again tonight and would return $18 on a $10 wager.

Our Gary Pearson is backing a different Devils forward to pick up an assist tonight in his NHL player props today.
