💰 Best player props for Golden Knights vs. Lightning
⬇️ Pavel Dorofeyev Under 2.5 shots on goal (+120) ⭐⭐⭐
Pavel Dorofeyev has been Vegas’ top goal scorer in 2025. He’s lit the lamp seven times for the Golden Knights, although we’re more interested in his shot volume for this prop.
Dorofeyev has logged a 17:26 ATOI while skating on the second line and top power-play unit. He's been given quality looks at the net, but we’ve still seen Dorofeyev go Under 2.5 shots on goal three times in his last five games.
At +120 through BetRivers (45.45% implied probability), a $10 bet on Dorofeyev to go Under 2.5 shots on goal could yield a $12 profit.
⬇️ Brandon Hagel Under 0.5 points (+115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Brandon Hagel logged a pair of assists during Tampa Bay’s 4-3 win against Anaheim on Saturday after being held without a point for five straight games. Hagel was highly productive for the Lightning last year, so he’s likely a victim of the team’s sluggish start.
The Golden Knights will want to bounce back after a 3-0 shutout loss to the Florida Panthers on Saturday. It was the first time Vegas has lost in regulation, so expect the Lightning to be fairly limited in the offensive zone. Plus, Hagel doesn’t skate with Tampa Bay’s best offensive players.
At +115 on DraftKings (46.51%), Hagel’s Under 0.5 points prop is worth taking. A $10 winning bet nets $11.50 of profit.
🥅 Best Golden Knights vs. Lightning anytime goal scorer prediction
🔥Jack Eichel anytime goal scorer (+170) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
We’re going to bet the chalk in the anytime goal scorer market and invest in Jack Eichel to net his seventh goal of the season.
Eichel has yet to go consecutive games without scoring a goal. Now he draws a favorable matchup against Tampa Bay goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy, who owns a 3.41 GAA.
At +170 odds on DraftKings (37.04%), a $10 bet on Eichel’s anytime goal scorer prop could return a $17 profit.
