There are five NHL games on the docket for Wednesday night, giving us enough games to choose from for our NHL player prop picks.<\/p>\n
My best NHL prop bets for tonight are targeting Alex DeBrincat, Kyle Connor, and Ivan Barbashev.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s get right into my favorite NHL player props and anytime goalscorer picks \u2013 and their odds at the best betting sites<\/a> \u2013 for Wednesday, Dec. 17. <\/p>\n Odds via FanDuel Sportsbook<\/a><\/p>\n Alex DeBrincat Anytime Goalscorer (+150) vs. Mammoth<\/a><\/p>\n I have the Red Wings as one of my NHL best bets today in this battle between two tired teams. The Mammoth and Red Wings both played last night, but Utah lost 4-1 in Boston while Detroit beat the Islanders 3-2 with two goals from Alex DeBrincat.<\/p>\n DeBrincat plays on the second line and top power-play unit for Detroit, and he\u2019s hot as of late. That\u2019s now two straight two-goal games for the Red Wings winger, and he\u2019s up to 20 goals in 34 games this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n The winger should be feeling good heading into Wednesday night\u2019s home matchup against the Mammoth, and Utah has allowed four goals in two straight and four of its last five contests.<\/p>\n Kyle Connor OVER 0.5 Assists (-128) at Blues<\/a><\/p>\n The Jets face off against the Blues for the first time since their Game 7 comeback win in the first round of last year\u2019s playoffs. Kyle Connor had three assists in that one, including one on the game-tying goal in the final seconds, and he comes into this game on a hot streak.<\/p>\n Connor has nine assists during his current seven-game streak to bring him up to 26 assists in 32 games this season. He\u2019s picked up a helper in 19 of those 32 games, but he\u2019s really found his stride after a lull a few weeks back.<\/p>\n The Blues are coming off a 5-2 loss to Nashville and have allowed 19 goals in their last four games. They now allow the most goals per game in the league at 3.56.<\/p>\n Ivan Barbashev OVER 0.5 Points (+110) vs. Devils<\/a><\/p>\n Not too much was made of the Ivan Barbashev to Vegas trade a few years ago. The winger had put up a 60-point season the year prior, but only had 29 points in 59 games with the Blues before being traded.<\/p>\n Joining the Golden Knights is the best thing that could\u2019ve happened for Barbashev as he immediately found chemistry with Jack Eichel. He\u2019s been riding shotgun on the top line ever since.<\/p>\n Barbashev has 25 points in 31 games this season, and he\u2019s been hot as of late. He has points in four of six December games and seven of his last 11 dating back to November 22.<\/p>\n I like the Golden Knights to take care of business on home ice as one of my NHL best bets tonight, and Barbashev is a great play a plus odds to record a point.<\/p>\n Odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.<\/p>\n If you or someone you know has a gambling problem and wants help, call 1-800-GAMBLER.<\/p>\n Create a new FanDuel Sportsbook account, and you can get $150 in bonus bets if you win your first $5 wager<\/a>.
