<h1><a href="https://us.betway.com/sports/grp/ice-hockey/north-america/nhl/?referral_source=Betway_com">Nathan Mackinnon to register over 4.5 shots at -105. My $10 bet would return $19.52</a></h1>
<p>Mackinnon has been disappointing in this series and hasn&#8217;t hit his over 4.5 since game five of the Jets series. But with the season on the line, I expect Nate Dawg to go down swinging, take him here at .8 units.</p>
<h1>Artturi Lehkonen to score anytime at +175. My $10 bet would return $27.50.</h1>
<p>With Nichushkin gone for the playoffs expect Lehkonen to play a ton with Mackinnon and Mikko Rantanen. Lehkonen has scored five goals these playoffs already and is a notorious playoff riser.</p>
<p>Take this play .8 units.</p>
<h1>Tyler Seguin to register over 2.5 shots at -125. My $10 bet would return $18.</h1>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">This is every bettors favourite pick of the playoffs, and Seguin has been cashing everyone out. The former second-overall pick has hit his over 2.5 in seven of his last eight games. I like this trend to continue, especially at home.</span></p>
<p>Take this play at .8 units.</p>

<p class="border-b-accent text-accent mb-5 border-b-2 text-3xl font-bold">Quinn Hughes to register an assist at -135. My $12.50 bet would return $21.75.  &#8211; HIT</p>
<p class="border-b-accent text-accent mb-5 border-b-2 text-3xl font-bold">Elias Pettersson to score a point at -140. My $10 bet would return $17.10 &#8211; MISSED</p>
<p class="border-b-accent text-accent mb-5 border-b-2 text-3xl font-bold">Vancouver to win money-line at +175. My $10 bet would return $27.50 &#8211; MISSED</p>
<p>Pettersson got a point but then lost it as the goal was changed from Brock Boeser to Dakota Joshua and Vancouver lost with 30ish seconds left on the clock. We could have been a great day, but ends up poor.</p>
<p>We staked $32.50 and returned $21.75. We are now up $9.80 on the playoffs so far.</p>
