Mitch Marner is expected to skate with stars Jack Eichel and Mark Stone in his playoff debut with Vegas.
My Mammoth vs. Golden Knights predictions expect Marner to take full advantage of the opportunity, with his playmaking skills playing a pivotal role.
Let’s take a closer look at my NHL picks for Sunday, April 19.
Mammoth vs Golden Knights Game 1 prediction
Mammoth vs Golden Knights best bet: Mitch Marner Over 0.5 assists (-135)
Mitch Marner is riding shotgun on a loaded top line with Jack Eichel and Mark Stone. That’s a good place to be.
That trio only spent 45 minutes together in the regular season, but the returns were undeniably good. Vegas controlled 67% of the shot attempts, 75% of the expected goals, and 78% of the scoring chances with them on the ice at 5-on-5.
Marner is very pass-happy, and both Stone and Eichel scored more goals, making it natural for Marner to focus on creating for others rather than himself.

Mammoth vs Golden Knights Game 1 same-game parlay
Jack Eichel regained his scoring touch at the end of the season, scoring in two of his final three games to help the Golden Knights claim top spot in the Pacific Division.
Skating with two heady playmakers in Marner and Stone, he should have plenty of opportunities to put his dangerous shot to use.
We’ll round out the parlay backing Vegas on the moneyline. They are 7-0-1 under Tortorella with exceptional underlying metrics to boot. They have a stronger profile, more high-end talent, and home ice. If the goaltending is close to average, they should win.

Mammoth vs Golden Knights Game 1 goal scorer pick
Dylan Guenther (+180)
Dylan Guenther enters the playoffs in fine form, having scored six goals over his last nine games. He is a clinical finisher who doesn’t need a bevy of chances to find the net. That’s especially true in this matchup. The Golden Knights ranked 27th in team save percentage, and goaltending has the potential to be their Achilles heel.
