Alex Ovechkin over 0.5 goals (+110)
Alex Ovechkin loves to play the Toronto Maple Leafs. In 51 career games, Ovechkin has recorded 41 goals against the Leafs. That’s his highest goals per game against one single opponent in his entire career. The future Hall of Famer thrives playing in Toronto, and tonight should be no different. Ovechkin will be going up against the game’s current leading goalscorer in Auston Matthews. While Ovechkin finds himself 12 goals behind Matthews, he’ll be looking to show the young superstar how it’s done. Ovechkin has scored in four straight games heading into tonight. Additionally, the Leafs goaltending has been suspect, to say the least. Take Ovechkin to record over 0.5 goals tonight for his 47th of the season.

Kirill Kaprizov over 0.5 goals (+120)
This game will have major implications for the Central Divison standings. The Minnesota Wild are looking to improve their chances at home-ice advantage while the Dallas Stars are just hoping to keep their playoff hopes alive. There will be a massive four-point swing in this game, and we’re expecting a game breaker to show up for his team. In just his second season, Kirill Kaprizov has established himself as a legit star in this league. He’s comfortably sitting in seventh place for league scoring with 91 points in 71 games. More importantly, his goalscoring has been nothing short of elite. Kaprizov has scored in three of his last four games and has scored 10 goals in his last 11 games. He’s eight goals away from 50 goals on the season and with the way he’s been playing, 50 is attainable. The last time these two teams met, Kaprizov recorded two goals. Take him to record over 0.5 goals tonight.
