You can find out our best NHL player prop bets below, but make sure you also read our NHL predictions for today’s games.

Jack Eichel over 0.5 goals (+140)

Recent tough stretch aside, the reigning Stanley Cup Champion Vegas Golden Knights are a force to be reckoned with once again. A very key reason for this team being difficult to play against is Jack Eichel. Eichel proved to be an important member of this team during their Stanley Cup run last season. Not much has changed in the months since then.

In 37 games played this season, Jack Eichel leads the Golden Knights in points with 40 which includes 16 goals. Eichel’s 16 goals are good for second on the team, just 1 goal behind the leader. In the lone matchup against the Kraken this season, the Golden Knights put up 4 goals with Eichel contributing 1 of those goals. He is by odds the most likely to score in this game, with which +140 odds brings great value.

Jordan Eberle over 0.5 points (+100)

Jordan Eberle is an original Kraken that has become a massive part of this team in its young 3-year franchise history. Last year’s playoff run was a big deal to him, as were his contributions to the team along the stretch run. Monday’s Winter Classic is no different. Although this is a regular season game just under halfway through the year, this one means a little bit more to the Kraken.

In his age 33 season, Jordan Eberle still has enough in his tank to produce in the NHL. If that were not the case, he would not be on the top line and power play of potential playoff team. The guy has the skill to produce, but in this game will also have the adrenaline and extra jump to produce in a game which features his team for the first time in its franchise history. This +100 looks very appetizing.
