It’s Sunday, and the NFL is trying to lure you in with games in Germany and featuring juggernauts on primetime. Don’t go to the light. Hold strong and maintain your focus on the two-game slate in the NHL. Saturday night’s NHL Underdog picks were an abysmal zero for four, but our season hit rate holds strong at 64%. So take Ted Lasso’s advice and have the memory of a goldfish because we’re building a winner on Sunday night. Here are my three best NHL Underdog Fantasy Picks for November 5.
The Quick Pick: Daily NHL Underdog Fantasy Pick ’em Picks for November 5
Connor Bedard Higher Than 0.5 Goals (1.5X Odds)
We are about one month into the 2023 season, and this will be our first time using Connor Bedard. Why not swing for the fences on this first pitch and take him to score a goal? Bedard comes into Sunday’s match-up with the Devils having scored in three straight. He will also face a Devils goaltender giving up 3.21 goals against and sporting a mere .893 save percentage. The rookie sensation has already made a lasting impression in Chicago, and at these odds, it’s worth taking a shot. You’re getting the green light to swing away and take Connor Bedard Higher Than 0.5 Goals.
Alex Pietrangelo Higher Than 0.5 Points
Those watching the VGK play this season might be wondering if they’ll lose a single game in regulation all year. The veteran Golden Knights defenseman heads into Sunday’s face-off with the Ducks on a three-game point streak. Pietrangelo has also accumulated 10 points in 12 games against Anaheim over the last three seasons. His time on ice numbers are right at the top of the roster, so a point looks more than doable. Our second NHL Underdog entry pick on Sunday night belongs to veteran Alex Pietrangelo Higher Than 0.5 Points.
Mason McTavish Higher Than 0.5 Assists (1.5X Odds)
The 20-year-old Ducks centerman has quietly put together an extraordinary 2023 campaign. McTavish has already netted five goals, added seven assists, and averages about 2.6 shots per game. Aside from individual contributions, his team is off to a 6-4 start and is currently in 4th in the Pacific division. On Sunday night, Mason brings a six-game point streak along with five assists into the clash with the VGK. Throw some extra mustard on our third NHL Underdog pick and press Higher Than 0.5 Assists for Mason McTavish.
