Welcome to today’s NHL Picks for PrizePicks, where we’ll be going through the slate and trying to find some easily attainable props. At first glance, it’s a tough slate to tread through so I’d recommend playing on the lighter side tonight.

NHL Picks
Patrick Kane – 1.5 Points
One of the games tonight that really has my interest is the Sabres/Blackhawks game. Neither team at this point has any hope of making the playoffs and both have been rather poor defensively on the year. To start, the Sabres should have Dustin Tokarski in the net tonight. While he had a stretch of decent hockey for 2 games, on the year he has a 3.07 GAA. He’s given up less than 3 goals just twice in his last 8 games.
Tokarski’s going to give up some goals, and if he does Patrick Kane will be a part of the reason why. If we look at just the month of March, Kane has 8 multi-point games out of 12. Half of the games he didn’t have a multi-point game were against the Bruins, one of the best teams in the league. My prediction for Kane tonight is a goal and an assist. So I’m going with the Over on the 1.5 points prediction that PrizePicks is giving us.
Kevin Lankinen – 2.5 Goals Allowed – Over
With MAF shipped off to Minnesota, it should be Lankinen in net tonight for the Blackhawks. On the year he has a pretty poor 3.50 GAA and a sub .890 save %. If we look at his recent play, it just hasn’t been very good. Over his last 6 games, he’s given up 4 goals twice and 5 goals twice. All we need out of the Sabres 3 goals tonight.
While they aren’t a powerhouse offense, especially with Eichel gone, they still have guys like Skinner and Thompson who are playing very well. Between the two of them, they should be able to find the net a couple of times with the rest of the team accounting for another goal. This game should be a fantasy haven tonight, offensively speaking. I’m going with the Over on this 2.5 Goals Allowed prop from PrizePicks.
Quinn Hughes – .5 Assists – Over
This Canucks/Blues game is another one where I expect to see some offense, especially from the Canucks side of this one. The Blues have had some challenges with their goaltending of late and I think we can take advantage of that tonight. Husso should be in net and although he has a great 2.43 GAA on the year, it’s not indicative of how he’s been playing lately.
He gave up 5 goals to the Hurricanes on Saturday, the second time in 3 games he’s given up 5 goals. He’s also given up at least 3 goals in 7 of his last 9 games. He’s struggling right now. With Hughes, we’re getting a solid offensive Defenseman. On the year he’s close to the 50 assist mark with 48. Josi, Fox, Makar, and Letang are the only Defensemen with more assists than him this season. Look for him to make it 3 straight with an assist tonight.
Tyler Myers – 1.5 Shots – Over
Tyler Myers has been firing at will of late. Over his last 5 games, he’s had multiple shots on goal 4 times. Of the 4 picks I’ve laid out today, this is the one that I’m the least confident in. That said, he’s on the ice for more than 23 minutes per game. If history repeats itself, he should get to that 2 shot number today.
Whether it’s for PrizePicks or DFS, make sure you’re reading all of our great NHL content.
Good luck and hope to see some green bars tonight!
