PointsBet Daily Picks: Brayden Schenn assist prop & Kubalik shot prop

Tyler Yaremchuk joined Frank Seravalli and Mike McKenna on Monday’s edition of Daily Faceoff Live for another PointsBet Daily Picks segment. 

With just a few games in the NHL on this quiet Halloween night, Yaremchuk will provide you with all your betting needs for the Blues/Kings and Detroit/Buffalo matchups. He details why you should bet on the Blues’ Brayden Schenn and Red Wings’ Dominik Kubalik tonight.

Tyler Yaremchuk: I don’t love a lot on this slate, but let’s dig into it courtesy of our friends over at PointsBet Canada.  Starting with a little assist prop in St. Louis & L.A. game, Brayden Schenn has been putting up apples like crazy this year. He’s got seven of them in seven games, he’s hit this in three of his last five as well. The +110 payout against a Kings team that has kind of struggled to keep pucks out of their net this season, I think this a really good spot. Schenn is +110 to pick up an assist tonight. 

Then we are going to the Detroit and Buffalo matchup where I don’t love picking a winner here and I don’t love the goal either as Detroit kind of surprised me on Saturday when they went under with Minnesota. But, what I do actually like about this is taking the Dominik Kubalik shot prop. Where you can find it at over 2.5 shots paying at a +145, he’s averaging over three shots per game, he’s hit this mark in three of his last five. +145 usually means an implied odds percentage of 41% or 42%. Well, he’s hit it in three of his last five, so that’s 60% and I think we are getting some good value there. So just two plays for me and a quiet night around the NHL Frank, it’s a Schenn assist and it’s a Kubalik over 2.5 shots.
