NHL Picks & Player Props to Target – December 4th, 2023

388

We have six games taking place across the NHL tonight. I’ll break down some sides/totals along with a few player props to take a look at.

 

Picks:

  • Tampa Bay Lightning (+100) – BetMGM

These teams just faced off on Saturday night where Dallas defeated Tampa Bay 8-1. Vasilevskiy had his worst game since his return finishing with a -3.68 Goals Saved Above Expected (GSAx). Tampa Bay has now lost their last four games being outscored 19-5 during that span. However, if there was ever a spot to right the ship, I believe this is it. Over the past few seasons this team has shown they can turn things around and given the extra motivation of being embarrassed in their last game, I like the Bolts at home.
