Mitch Marner over 0.5 goals (+165)
Since returning from Covid protocols, Marner has recorded a six-game goal streak. This is the best Marner has looked all season and there is no reason to slow down. He recorded a goal last night against the Devils and he’ll be looking to double down here tonight against them. His goals have come in a string of different ways as well. On the penalty kill, powerplay, and five on five, he’s managed to put the puck in the back of the net for the last six games. Before the All-Star break, Marner will be looking to end this week on a high note and extend his streak.
At +165 odds, bettors are getting incredible value tonight. The Devils have allowed the fifth-most goals per game this season with 3.45 per game, and the Leafs scored six against them last night. The Leafs are averaging the fourth-most goals per game with 3.51 and have the number one ranked powerplay in the league. Marner has three powerplay goals in his last five games. Take Marner to record a goal tonight — oddsmakers are seriously undervaluing him tonight.

Kyle Connor over 0.5 goals (+125)
Kyle Connor is one of the more underrated goal scorers in the league. He currently has 24 goals in 41 games and is currently leading the Jets in points. He’s seventh in goals scored this year in the entire league, and tonight, he’ll be playing a team that is really struggling defensively. The Flyers have been an embarrassment as of late. They lost 13 straight games before pulling off an OT victory in their most recent game. During their losing streak, they were allowing 3.9 goals per game. Connor will be looking to take advantage of this tonight.
Connor has three goals in his last four games. He’s averaged more than four shots a game over his last four games as well. He’s a shooting machine and will be looking to score before the upcoming All Star break. If there’s any game for him to score, it’s tonight against the Flyers; they have no defense and he will be representing his team in the All Star game this weekend. Take him to record a goal tonight.
