🥅 Best anytime goal scorer pick today
Tage Thompson (+140) at Panthers
Tage Thompson has been red-hot for the surging Sabres. He's scored in two straight games and six of his last 10. That includes his previous game against the Panthers, and I'm looking to profit from a matchup that once again favors Thompson.
The Panthers rank 22nd in five-on-five goals against, per MoneyPuck, while only Nathan MacKinnon has more even-strength goals than Thompson this season. That's why the Sabres forward is my best anytime goal scorer pick today at FanDuel's +140 odds, but there's value up to +125 on this bet.

Kyle Connor (+165) at Ducks
Kyle Connor has scored in two straight games entering tonight's matchup against the Ducks, who allowed five goals in their first game following the Olympic break.
The Ducks have been one of the worst defending teams all season, ranking second-worst in goals against per game. Connor already found the back of the net against Anaheim in their only meeting so far this season. I'm backing him at FanDuel's +165 odds but would pay up to +150 for a wager on Winnipeg's sniper to light the lamp on Friday.

Bankroll management is a crucial element for a long-term, successful betting strategy.
Given Friday's smaller NHL slate, I only identified two anytime goal scorer picks I want to back today. The amount of units I wagered on each represented how I view each player's likelihood of scoring. I have the most faith in Thompson, which is why I'm betting a full unit on him to score. While I love backing Connor as well, I'm slightly less confident in his matchup, which is why I'm betting 0.5 units on him. Goal scorer predictions can be tough to nail, so be strategic about the size of your wagers when making your picks.
