Our best NHL player props for Sunday, April 19
Take a look at our best bets and expert analysis below.
Prop #1: Nathan MacKinnon to score
The Colorado Avalanche star sniper blistered the league for 53 goals, the second time in three years he’s gone for 50+.
Now Nathan MacKinnon draws the Kings, a team he’s lit up for 10 goals and 27 points in the last 15 games.
He’s also tallied in three straight Game 1’s in the postseason.

Prop #2: Cole Caufield Over 0.5 assists
I’m taking Cole Caufield to pick up a helper here as it’s got just a little bit more juice than lighting the lamp.
The NHL’s no. 2 goal scorer behind MacKinnon this season has been doing damage at Tampa Bay, picking up points in four of his last five games there, with two goals and three assists.
- Time: 5:45 p.m. ET
- Where to watch: TNT, truTV
Prop #3: David Pastrnak to score
Let’s wrap up with Boston’s top scorer, who has absolutely feasted on the Sabres, picking up points in 15 of his last 16 games.
This might be just the matchup David Pastrnak needs. He hasn’t scored a goal in 10 straight, but he’s tallied in three straight games against Buffalo, and I’m banking on him making it four.
- Time: 7:30 p.m. ET
