Game 3 Prop #1: Leo Carlsson Over 3.5 SOG 

+110 at BET99

Leo Carlsson continues to do his thing in these playoffs for the Anaheim Ducks. He’s notched nine points in only eight games played, and the youngster has cashed the Over in SOG in seven of eight in the postseason. 

Carlsson put four pucks on net in Games 1 and 2, and he found the back of the net in Game 2 as the Ducks walked away with a victory. In three home games in the playoffs, Carlsson is averaging 3.33 SOG. 

Game 3 Prop #2: Jack Eichel Over 0.5 assists

-140 at BET99

Jack Eichel had an impressive 63 helpers during the regular season, and he’s added another nine in the playoffs, serving as one of the Vegas Golden Knights’ top playmakers. Eichel set up his team’s lone goal in Game 2. 

The American has hit the Over in helpers in four of his last five contests, and he’s already grabbed five assists in only three road games in the playoffs. 

Game 3 Prop #3: Chris Kreider Over 0.5 assists

+175 at BET99

The Ducks got production from Chris Kreider in Game 2 as he set up one of their two goals. The winger has compiled five helpers in the postseason and three in his last three contests. Kreider notched two helpers in the series-clincher against the Edmonton Oilers at home.

In fact, he’s hit the Over in assists in two of three games at the Honda Center in the playoffs, and 21 of his 28 regular-season helpers were on home ice.

Playing on the top line with lethal finishers like Carlsson and Troy Terry, he has a really high chance of tallying another assist in Game 3.
