NHL playoff bets: Two props for Dallas-Seattle tonight

By Griffin Carroll | Last updated 5/13/23

Yesterday was a beautiful day of betting hockey, sweeping our article plays. For Saturday, we have just one game: Game 6 between the Dallas Stars and Seattle Kraken.

Dallas is looking to advance to the Western Conference Finals, while the Kraken are hoping to stave off elimination in front of their home faithful. Each game of this series has gone over and seen quite a few goals scored, and it's there our focus goes today. By all means, bet the over, it looks promising — I just prefer the value on a few individuals to get in on the action.

Vince Dunn point (+110 CZR)

For the first time this series, Vince Dunn was held without a point in Game 5, and I'm jumping on the bounce back for the Kraken defenseman.

Dunn has five points this series, and nine total points in eight meetings against Dallas on the season. He's been steady at home with his point involvement, logging one in three straight games.

I do think Seattle can find a few goals tonight, they've been a tough out all postseason, and in an elimination game, they're sure to throw everything they got at Jake Oettinger and the Stars.

Joe Pavelski goal (+195 FD)

I've been betting Joe Pavelski's goal all series and I sure as hell won't be stopping now. Pavelski has a goal in four of five games this round, eight total, and he's scored in two straight since getting bumped back to the top line alongside Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz.

Pavelski has scored in seven of eight games against Seattle this season, and he's now scored in 18 of his last 26 games. It's quite surprising that we continue to get such a good price on his goal, but he's gained my trust for another bet.

Pavelski has scored in 10 of his last 13 on the road.
