💰 Best player props for Maple Leafs vs. Sabres
Our NHL player prop odds tool shows the best odds for every market across legal sportsbooks in your area.
⬆️ Zach Benson Over 0.5 points (-134) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Skating on Buffalo’s first line and top power-play unit, Zach Benson benefits from over 19 minutes ATOI. It also helps that Benson skates alongside the Sabres’ best overall forward, Tage Thompson.
Benson has only been active for four games, but he’s recorded six assists and is tied for the most points on Buffalo’s roster entering tonight’s matchup against Toronto. Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz has been shaky lately, allowing four goals in back-to-back starts against the Kraken and Devils.
At -134 at Caesars (57.26%), we’re paying a bit of a premium on Benson to continue churning out a point for the Sabres’ offense. A $10 winning bet yields a $7.46 profit.
⬇️ Josh Doan Under 2.5 shots on goal (-135) ⭐⭐⭐
One of Buffalo’s young forwards, Josh Doan, sits second in total shots on goal (22) through seven games played. The 23-year-old has slowed his pace lately, though, logging two shots on goal in his last two matchups against Montreal and Detroit.
He’ll have opportunities to get the puck on net, but Toronto is a desperate team that will likely control possession with urgency to stop its two-game skid.
Doan has gone Under 2.5 shots on goal in three of seven games, including his last two outings. At -135 at BetMGM (57.45%), a $10 bet that wins on Doan’s Under 2.5 shots on goal prop nets a $7.41 profit.

🔥 John Tavares anytime goal scorer (+200) ⭐⭐⭐
John Tavares has been red-hot for Toronto during the last four games, leading the way with four total goals and seven points. The 35-year-old has a 17:29 ATOI this season while skating on the Maple Leafs’ second line and centering their top power-play unit.
Tavares will look to light the lamp against Buffalo goaltender Alex Lyon. Lyon logged an impressive shutout win against the Panthers before giving up three goals in a loss to Montreal in his last start. He’s surrendered three or more goals in three of his previous four starts for the Sabres.
Tavares’ anytime goal scorer prop is available to bet at +200 odds at BetRivers (33.33%). A winning $10 bet brings in $20 in profit. Meanwhile, our Gary Pearson is backing Auston Matthews to beat Lyon in his NHL player prop bets today.
