Mammoth vs. Golden Knights Best Prop Bet
- Mark Stone Anytime Goal (+200) via FanDuel
Mark Stone led the entire Golden Knights roster in goals in the final 10 games of the season, recording seven. He also led the team in expected goals at 4.6, which was 0.9 more than any other player on the team in the final stretch of the season. Despite that, he's not the favorite to find the back of the net in Game 2. I'll bet on him at +200.
Mammoth vs. Golden Knights Prediction and Pick
I've been extremely high on the Golden Knights heading into the playoffs, and Game 1 further cemented my opinion. The Golden Knights had an expected goals of +1.19, which was the third-best mark amongst all teams in Game 1 action.
The Mammoth are outskilled and out-talented in this series, and I don't think the Golden Knights are being given enough respect from the betting market. They started playing their best hockey of the season heading into the playoffs, including ranking second in the league in expected goal differential since the Olympic break.
