  • Analyst: Luc LeBlanc

Player prop: Evan Bouchard 1+ assists

Luc LeBlanc's Oilers vs. Flyers predictions spotlight Bouchard, who is on pace for 88 assists and 136 points. The Oilers defenseman has been producing 2.46 assists per 60 minutes and faces a Philadelphia team allowing 3.23 goals per game. Since Nov. 1, 2025, he's registered an assist in 70.3% of his games, rising to 74.4% on the road.

Goal scorer: Evan Bouchard anytime goal

Bouchard has scored 12 goals this season, five more than any other defenseman and tied for seventh among all NHL skaters. He has found the net in consecutive outings and five of his last seven games, including three straight on the road, after setting a career high with 21 goals last season.

Panthers vs Stars

Player prop: Matthew Tkachuk 1+ assist

Chris Faria's Panthers vs. Stars predictions back Matthew Tkachuk, whose 25 assists rank second in the NHL. Florida has controlled nearly 58% of shot attempts and 57% of expected goals with him on the ice at five-on-five, and he has assisted in five straight road games and eight of his last 10 appearances.

Goal scorer: Brady Tkachuk anytime goal

Brady Tkachuk enters with 75 shots on goal, 10.25 individual expected goals, and 46 high-danger chances, ranking among the league leaders in each category. He scored in St. Louis on Saturday and has found the net four times in his last five road games.

Canucks vs Golden Knights

  • Time: 9 p.m. ET
  • TV: Sportsnet Pacific
  • Analyst: Chris Faria

Player prop: Mitch Marner Over 0.5 assists

Chris Faria's Canucks vs. Golden Knights predictions highlight Marner's exceptional consistency: he has recorded an assist in 16 of 19 games and in each of his last 10 home appearances. Nine of his 21 assists have come on the power play, a matchup advantage with Vegas converting 27.4% of its opportunities and Vancouver's penalty kill sitting at 62.7%.

Goal scorer: Tomas Hertl anytime goal

Hertl has scored five of his nine goals on the power play, where he works around the slot and the front of the net. He leads Vegas with 10.07 individual expected goals, 76 scoring chances, and 52 high-danger chances, making him a threat against Vancouver's struggling defense.
