As the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs skate on, we’re starting to have fewer games each night, but the competition ramps up 10-fold. With that in mind, we have just 1 game on the board tonight. However, it’s a potential closeout game as well. Following their Game 5 win, the Dallas Stars have the opportunity to eliminate the Seattle Kraken. They’ll have to do so on the road, which can cause hesitation in picking a winner. Therefore, we have our top NHL player prop for you to target as well.

Miro Heiskanen over 0.5 assists (-135)
When it comes to the Dallas Stars the past 2 seasons, it’s been all about Jason Robertson. After all, his 109 points this year were tied for the 5th-most in the league. As for this series, it’s been all about Joe Pavelski and his incredible 7 goals. Overall, Roope Hintz has 8 goals in these Stanley Cup Playoffs. Well, someone has to be feeding them assists to find the back of the net. That guy would be Heiskanen more often than not. He has 8 points himself in this postseason, and all 8 have been assists.
The defenseman has a solid shot, but he prefers to set up that top line of Robertson, Pavelski and Hintz. Let’s also not forget that he also has captain Jamie Benn to link up with. Heiskanen recorded 73 points through 79 games in the regular season as well, and 62 of those were assists. It’s also worth noting that his 25:29 ice time per game this year was the 6th-most in the NHL. That’s amped up in the Stanley Cup Playoffs; his 27:50 is the 2nd-most and the absolute most out of the skaters remaining. With Heiskanen surrounded with great skaters and seemingly always on the ice, him to record an assist is our top NHL player prop for tonight.
