Tkachuk’s Unbelievable ValueWe genuinely could not believe that Matthew Tkachuk’s shot line was such good odds at plus money. Currently, we can get the Panthers’ leading shot taker to see 4+ shots in this game at +130 NHL betting odds, which to be honest is about 25 cents more than we were expecting, so we would happily bet this down to as low as +105. Although it’s the finals and things might be tight on the ice, we cannot stray our eyes off these odds having considered everything. Thus far during the playoffs, he has seen 4+ shots in 10 of his 17 games, which might not seem like a lot but in terms of odds, these calculate to no more than -125. Take into consideration that it’s the finals and you still only push it out to around +100. Let’s ride with Tkachuk and that golden glove in game one. If you don’t mind laying juice, he has seen 3+ shots in 71% of his games, which is around -245, but the sportsbooks are offering -200 for this market, which is a fair price in our opinion. NHL Pick: Matthew Tkachuk Over 3.5 Shots (+130) at Bet365Sam Reinhart Value to Nik a GoalHaving finished the season as the second top goalscorer, Sam Reinhart has failed to find the back of the net for two games now, which isn’t long in the NHL world even for a top scorer, but he will be hoping to find the back of the net sooner or later, and a pick-up in form heading into the finals would be nice considering Reinhart has only scored in 7 of his 17 playoff games. The Panthers’ forward did help them in the conference finals with three goals across the series, but we really are backing him to get back into form having only scored in 4 of his previous 13 games having started the playoffs with 3 goals in his first 4 games. Reinhart certainly has the ability to cash this bet for us, let’s hope he does so at +135 odds. NHL Pick: Sam Reinhart Anytime Goalscorer (+135) at Bet365 *The line and/or odds referenced in this article might have changed since the content was published.
