My NHL player props for today focus on three games and four players, with David Pastrnak and Seth Jarvis under the spotlight when the Boston Bruins and Carolina Hurricanes square off in Beantown. 

Leon Draisaitl looks to extend his goal-scoring streak to four games when the Edmonton Oilers face the Buffalo Sabres, while Brad Marchand will be set on remaining when the Florida Panthers host the Vancouver Canucks.

⬆️ Seth Jarvis player prop: Over 2.5 shots (-118) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Jarvis doesn't mess around on the road as he averages 4.1 shots per game in enemy rinks. He has at least three shots in six of nine road contests, including five in Beantown on Nov. 1.

He's also particularly productive against tonight's opponents, firing at least three shots in four of the previous five meetings with Boston. Jarvis has averaged 4.0 shots per game in that sample size. His odds to hit the Over range from -118 to -125, with FanDuel and BetMGM at the high end of the market. 

Those -118 odds carry an implied probability of 54.13%, and a winning $10 bet will profit $8.47. 

⬆️ David Pastrnak player prop: Over 0.5 assists (-135) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Pastrnak enters on a three-game assist streak, notching four. He has at least one assist in eight of 11 games at TD Garden and has 15 assists in 20 games overall. Pasta has at least one assist in four of the previous five meetings with the Carolina Hurricanes, registering five. 

While the odds are a bit short for my liking, there's tons of value in the prop considering he's notched at least one assist in 73% of home games. His implied probability on the -135 odds is 57.45%. A winning $10 bet at those odds will facilitate a $7.41 profit on a $10 bet. 


🥅 Best NHL goal scorer picks today

🔥 Brad Marchand (+145) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I backed Marchand to score last week in Vegas, and he made no mistake. With 12 goals, Marchand is on pace for 57 goals, which, if you can believe it, would surpass his previous best by 18.

Sustaining his torrid pace could prove problematic, but Marchand isn't slowing down yet, netting in seven of the previous nine games. 

He has nine goals during that sizzling-hot streak. Marchand has also enjoyed success on the rare occasion he faces the Vancouver Canucks, scoring four in the previous six meetings. Of the best sports betting sites, DraftKings provides the best value (+145), where a winning $10 bet will profit $14.50. 

🔥 Leon Draisaitl (+120) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Draisaitl ended his mini three-game scoring drought in Columbus, and I reaped the rewards after backing him to light the lamp.

He has three goals in the last two games and is heating up again. Draisaitl has 13 goals in 20 games, one behind Nathan MacKinnon for the league lead. 

The Buffalo Sabres allow the third-most goals per game (3.56) and per 60 minutes 5-on-5 (3.0). That porous defense should be music to Draisaitl's ears, whose Oilers are also finding their groove, winning three of the previous four.  You'll earn $12 on a $10 bet if he lights the lamp at KeyBank Center. 

If you're looking for more action on this one, I break down the whole game with my Oilers vs. Sabres player props. And Liam Fox is also backing Draisaitl to score in his anytime goal scorer predictions for today.
