Take a look at our best bets and expert analysis below.

Prop #1: Nathan MacKinnon Over 1.5 points

-130 at BET99

Connor McDavid may have overtaken Nathan MacKinnon for the NHL points lead, but the Colorado Avalanche star is still favored in the Hart Trophy odds.

MacKinnon has logged Over 1.5 points in five of his last six games, and he just posted two assists against the Minnesota Wild a week and a half ago.

The Avs center has recorded multiple points in all three of his meetings vs. Minnesota this season, and he’ll deliver another multi-point performance today in a crucial Central Division matchup.

Prop #2: Jason Robertson Over 0.5 assists

-130 at BET99

The Dallas Stars are a sizable -240 favorite over the Chicago Blackhawks tonight, and Jason Robertson will prove why the hosts have the edge.

Robertson has recorded two assists in each of his last two games and at least one helper in four straight outings. The Blackhawks have just two wins in their last 11 outings while allowing 3.73 gapg over that span.

The Stars are 9-0-1 over that same stretch, averaging 4.3 gpg — the third-best mark in the NHL. Dallas will dominate, and Robertson will factor into at least one goal tonight.

Prop #3: Josh Norris Over 0.5 points

+110 at BET99

Josh Norris has quietly been one of the Buffalo Sabres’ most important players this season.

Norris has dealt with injuries this season but is averaging nearly a point per game with 23 points in 25 appearances. He's been incredibly consistent for Buffalo, finding the score sheet in 18 of 25 games.

Norris has tallied a point in two straight contests and nine of his last 12 games. The Sabres rank fifth in the league with 214 goals scored this season, and chances are: Norris has a hand in another goal tonight.
