Sam Reinhart Over 1.5 points (+230) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sam Reinhart was red-hot entering 2026, tallying 13 points across the last two weeks of December.
I expect the "Reino" to carry that dominance into the Winter Classic today against a struggling Rangers side. Reinhart potted two against New York the last time these teams met.

Brad Marchand Over 0.5 assists (+114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Brad Marchand has at least one assist in five of his last seven games ahead of his fourth career outdoor contest.
He's also delivered as a facilitator specifically against New York, with eight helpers across his last 10 head-to-head meetings with the Rangers (this is his first as a member of the Panthers).
FanDuel offers the top value among the best sports betting sites on Marchand picking up an apple.
Mika Zibanejad Under 2.5 shots on goal (-188) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Mika Zibanejad hasn't had any success putting the puck on net of late. He only has one total shot on goal across his previous five appearances.
He somehow finished with zero his last time out despite six shot attempts. Facing Florida today shouldn't help matters either, as the Panthers rank sixth-best in limiting shots.
