NHL Player Props Today: Anytime Goal Scorer Predictions & Best Bets for Tonight

Last Updated: October 22, 2025 2:21 PM EDT • 3 minute read X Social Google News Link

My NHL player props today feature Jack Hughes, Dylan Larkin, and Cole Caufield. With only three games on the docket, my NHL picks have doubled down on the sizzling-hot devil.
Hughes is shooting more than a child playing with his first Super Soaker. He's one of the primary factors helping the Devils remain among the Stanley Cup odds contenders. I've also provided a bonus pick in the copy below.

💰 Best NHL player prop bets for Oct. 22
Our NHL player prop odds tool shows the best odds for every market across legal sportsbooks in your area.
⬆️ Jack Hughes Over 3.5 shots (-110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hughes is hotter than the devil on his shoulder on the rare occasion he sides with the angel. The Devils' best offensive player has 18 shots in the last three games and 25 in the previous five. In the recent prolific three-game stint, Hughes attempted an astounding 28 shots.
He also has 12 shots in two home games. A winning $10 bet will return $9.09 in profits.
⬆️ Dylan Larkin Over 2.5 shots (-138) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Larkin hit the Over on this total in four of six games thus far, and he's averaging 3.3 per game. The Red Wings' captain loves playing the Buffalo Sabres, with at least three shots in six of the previous seven meetings. That includes three successive Overs in Buffalo, averaging 4.67 in that sample size.
Of the best sports betting sites, FanDuel provides the greatest value, where a winning $10 bet will profit $7.25. I'm also partial to Larkin registering at least two points, which you can play at +220. Larkin notched at least two points the last three times he faced the Sabres.
Our Liam Fox backs Larkin to tally an assist as well in his Red Wings vs. Sabres player props.
🥅 Best anytime goal scorer predictions today
🔥 Jack Hughes (+160) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hughes buried six goals in the previous three games. He roasted the Toronto Maple Leafs on the road on Tuesday, scoring a hat trick.
That sets the stage for the second of a back-to-back. Without any rest, the sizzling heat emitted from Hughes' gloves and hands won't have time to cool. If he extends his goal-scoring streak to four games, you'll earn a $16 profit on a $10 bet.
🔥 Cole Caufield (+160) ⭐⭐⭐
Caufield hasn't scored in two games after netting in three straight. Despite not scoring in a pair, he has five goals in the last five games. The Calgary Flames allow the third-most goals per game (3.86), and while they've been better defensively recently, the Habs' best sniper should get an opportunity or two to add to his goals haul.
The +160 odds at FanDuel represent a 39.22% implied probability, and a winning $10 bet will profit $16. BetMGM and Caesars offer +145 odds at the low end of the market. Perhaps Caufield will score off a Nick Suzuki assist, which our Connor Cooper predicts in his Canadiens vs. Flames player props.
