The Stanley Cup Final starts this Saturday with the Edmonton Oilers representing the West as they take on the Panthers, who represent the East. It’s the time of the year all hockey fans wait for as a new Champion is crowned and legends are made. 

The public also has an opportunity to make this Stanley Cup Final historic by earning a huge payday for hitting on special prop bets to celebrate the Finals. You can pick from wide variety of bets like if Connor McDavid or Matthew Tkatchuk will get a point in every game. 

The choice is up to you but if you need some encouragement, here is one of our favourites for prop bets on the series. 

All betting lines are from BetMGM and are subject to change. Hockey is a difficult sport to predict so please gamble responsibly.

Bet: Matthew Tkachuk to record 3+ shots in every game of the series (+1000), Matthew Tkachuk to record 2+ shots in every game of the series (+130)

Entering the Stanley Cup Final, Florida’s Matthew Tkachuk leads the team in shots with 66 through 17 games, which averages out to just under four a game. This is a very achievable task for Tkachuk, as he’s reached three or more shots in ten of his last 13 games. 

He’s also recorded three or more shots in ten of his last 15 games versus the Oilers and should do well with the Oilers. He came close last postseason with three or more shots in three of the four Stanley Cup Final games he played.

It’s worth taking a shot at the three shots per game, but if you want to take it at two, that is a solid pick. He has two or more shots in four straight games and in 14 of his 17 playoff games. His numbers also improve against the Oilers with two or more shots in 17 of his last 23 matchups against them. 

He also hit this prop last postseason with two or more shots in every game he played of the Stanley Cup Final and in 18 of his 20 playoff games.
