SLATE PREVIEW
Toronto (vs. Calgary), Los Angeles (at San Jose) and Florida (vs. Anaheim) are the biggest favorites on the Moneyline. The over/under for the Golden Knights-Hurricanes, Blue Jackets-Sabres and Mammoth-Oilers is 6.5 goals. The Ducks-Panthers, Red Wings-Blues and Devils-Avalanche matchups anticipate there being 6.0 goals scored, while the other contests expect 5.5 goals.
GOALES
Andrei Vasilevskiy, TBL at NSH ($7,500): Vasilevskiy earned his first win of the season in his sixth start. He made 18 saves in a 2-1 overtime win over Vegas on Sunday, and he should build off that performance against a Nashville team that he has had considerable success against in the past. Vasilevskiy has won his last nine outings versus the Predators while allowing only 17 goals on 286 shots.
Connor Hellebuyck, WPG at MIN ($7,400): Hellebuyck has lost his last two outings while allowing four goals on 58 shots. However, he has plenty of bounce-back appeal versus the Wild. Hellebuyck has won his past six appearances against Minnesota, stopping 180 of 187 shots.
VALUE PLAYS/ONE-OFFS
Nikita Kucherov, TBL at NSH ($8,700): Kucherov has one goal and five assists during his current four-game point streak. He has two power-play helpers and 13 shots during that stretch.
Kyle Connor, WPG at MIN ($7,700): Connor has amassed four goals and 11 points through nine appearances this season. He is riding a five-game point streak against the Wild, compiling three goals, three assists and 14 shots.
Macklin Celebrini, SJS vs. LAK ($7,100): Celebrini has five goals and four helpers over his four-game point spree. He has four points (one goal, three assists) with the man advantage and 18 shots on net across that span.
FORWARD LINE STACKS
Mammoth at Oilers
Dylan Guenther (W - $6,600), Logan Cooley (C - $5,900), JJ Peterka (W - $4,400)
Guenther has three goals, four assists and 17 shots during a five-game point spree. Cooley has five tallies, three helpers and 12 shots across a four-game point streak. Peterka has one goal, four assists and four shots over his three-game point spree.
Utah's second line should remain hot against the Oilers on Tuesday. The trio also offers solid price points across the board.
Kings at Sharks
Adrian Kempe (W - $6,900), Anze Kopitar (C - $4,600), Andrei Kuzmenko (W - $4,900)
Kempe has three goals on 10 shots and five assists during a five-game point streak. He has two power-play points (one goal, one assist) and a shorthanded helper during that period. Kopitar hasn't earned a point in two outings since returning to the lineup from a foot injury, but he had one goal and four assists in four meetings with the Sharks last season. Kuzmenko has supplied one goal, two assists and eight shots in his past five appearances. He has one goal and one helper on the power play over that period.
Los Angeles' top line has considerable bang for the buck potential against the Sharks on Tuesday. San Jose has allowed the most goals per game (4.67) and shots per game (32.9) this season, while ranking 30th on the penalty kill.
DEFENSEMEN
Mikhail Sergachev, UTA at EDM ($5,300): Sergachev has registered two goals, six assists, eight shots and five blocks over a four-game point streak. He has one goal and four helpers on the power play during that stretch.
Jacob Trouba, ANA at FLA ($3,700): Trouba has filled the stat sheet during his current three-game point streak, collecting two goals, three assists, eight shots and eight blocks. He'll be a superb value play if he can remain hot.
