B. Marchand (BOS) - Over 0.5 assists+105BOS Bruins @ TOR Maple Leafs

To set the stage for this pivotal Game 6, it’s worth noting how these franchises have performed heading into this series. Last season, the Leafs won their first playoff series since 2004. Meanwhile, the Bruins were unable to live up to their record-setting season by getting eliminated in the first round after having a 3-1 series lead.

That’s what they’re looking to avoid blowing yet again, and it’s new captain Brad Marchand that should help them advance. There were doubts for the team after Patrice Bergeron retired in the offseason, but Boston has had another stellar season. They defeated Toronto all 4 times in the regular season, where Marchand excelled. In those meetings, the ‘pest’ recorded 4 assists and 5 total points.

That success has continued in this series, as Marchand has recorded 8 points through the 5 games thus far, and 5 of them have been assists. We know that linemate David Pastrnak loves to shoot the puck, which means more opportunities for Marchand. Therefore, our best NHL prop bet pick for today is Brad Marchand to record an assist.

What NHL Player Props Can I Wager On?

NHL player props, unlike their major US sporting counterparts in MLB props, NFL props, and NBA props, are tough to find with the majority of online sportsbooks offering little to no markets for these.

NHL player prop bets are unsurprisingly centered around the statistical performance of a player in a match. These markets will revolve around a player’s points, goals, and assists or it can be a combination of all three.

The most common NHL player props include a player to Score a Goal, or you will often see either a player vs player market or an over/under line set for a particular stat, or group of stats.

The simplest NHL prop bet is a player to score a goal where you may be offered odds on just the yes scenario, while some will offer both a yes or no.

You can also place an over/under wager on a player in a particular statistical category such as Over or under 1.5 assists.

The other type of NHL player prop bet you can see is a player vs player line. Here you’re betting for a player to have the Most Pts Scored, Goals & Assists combined in a match bet.

NHL player prop betting is not as popular as some other major sports, and as such odds are offered by far fewer sportsbooks. Sportsbooks such as FanDuel, DraftKings, and 888sport are the most common places to find an NHL player prop bet market, but even they can be sporadic.

What NHL Team Props Can I Wager On?

NHL team props are centered around a team’s performance or particular events to take place during a match. NHL team props are more widely available than NHL player props, typically offering a wider selection of markets too.

Popular examples of an NHL team prop bet include Double Chance where you can bet for a team to win or tie, Team to score first, Team Goals Scored (over/under), or who will Record the most Points.

These are just a few examples of NHL team props you can wager on, with a wide selection it allows you to wager on a game from a different approach, one in which research and analysis are hugely important.

Research is vital in NHL team prop bets with goaltenders and lineups often interchangeable, yet key components in finding a good spot to place a team prop bet wager. Our experts spend hours analyzing the matchups and conditions, alongside a comparison of sportsbooks odds to find the best opportunity and value NHL prop bets.

NHL Grand Salami Prop Bets

The Grand Salami prop bets are a type of prop betting market also seen in the MLB where you are waging over/under on the number of goals scored each night across all of the NHL action.

Like regular over/under markets a line will be set, for example, 24.5 goals with odds of say +120 for Over the total or -100 for the total number of goals scored to be under the line.

You can find all of our NHL team props and other NHL prop bets right here on the NHL prop bets page throughout the entire season, right through until the Stanley Cup Finals.

Hockey Prop Bets

The game of hockey is a fast and dynamic one with speed and power to the fore, and there are many ways in which you can bet on the on-ice action aside from the outcome of the game. Hockey Prop Bets offer just that, an alternative betting method on a plethora of player and team-stats based such as a player to score a goal, a correct score, or a teams’ total goals figure. Here at Pickswise, we bring you the very best hockey prop bets every day of the season, right here on the hockey prop bets page.
