We only have one game on tap tomorrow in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, but considering Game 1 of the Minnesota Wild vs. the Colorado Avalanche featured 15 goals, we aren’t at a loss for players to include in a goal-scoring parlay. For my NHL goal scorer parlay for Tuesday (May 5th): NHL Predictions, we’re off to the Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado. Let’s hit the ice!
NHL Goal Scorer Parlay For Tuesday (May 5th): NHL Predictions
Minnesota Wild vs Colorado Avalanche
Start Time: 8:00 PM EST
The Minnesota Wild and the Colorado Avalanche are among the top defensive teams in the league (#4 and #1, respectively, in goals allowed), but that wasn’t too apparent in Game 1 of their Western Conference Second Round series, which the Avalanche won 9-6.
So, as mentioned, if this trend continues, we shouldn’t have any trouble finding viable options for our goal-scoring parlay. Let’s hedge our bets and grab a player from each team tomorrow.
I’ll go with the low-hanging fruit for the Avalanche and take the league’s top goal scorer, Nathan MacKinnon. This year’s winner of the Rocket Richard Trophy as the top goal scorer in the league lit the lamp once in Game 1 and now has three goals in these playoffs.
Despite not scoring on Sunday night, the Wild’s Matt Boldy continues to lead the playoffs with six goals, as well as leading the league with 36 shots on goal. He’ll continue to get plenty of scoring opportunities tomorrow night, so I’m adding him to my play.
NHL Goal Scorer Parlay: Nathan MacKinnon + Matt Boldy (+324)
