Same-Game Parlay Leg 1: OVER 6.5 (-110)
In our expert picks today, I also lean in favor of the OVER here. There hasn't been a dull moment in the two games of this series with a combined 20 goals being scored.
Hellebuyck has looked average, not recording over a .900SV% yet. Despite Georgiev's solid performance last meeting, he has yet to earn my full trust between the pipes. That seven-goal, .696SV% isn't just brushed off that easily.
The offense is red-hot, the defense and goaltenders are not. This is going to be another back-and-forth tilt on the scoreboard.
Same-Game Parlay Leg 2: nichushkin Anytime Goal
Nichushkin's line has been lethal this series. Lehkonen, who I'll get into later, joins Nichushkin and Mittelstadt by relentlessly throwing pucks toward the net. The trio has accounted for 26 shots this series.
We've seen Nichushkin jump between the first and second line but regardless, he is not short of prime scoring chances. He has pocketed a goal in each of the two outings. Whether playing with MacKinnon or the Lehkonen/Mittelstadt pairing, his linemates are constantly sending the puck to the net and setting up plays. Nichushkin has proven he will be more than willing to capitalize on those chances.

Same-Game Parlay Leg 3: lehkonen O2.5 SOG
Am I missing something? Why are the odds on this so good? If there's any time you can count on Lehkonen, it's in the playoffs. The 28-year-old has snapped 11 shots in the first two meetings, already notching four points this series.

At Ball Arena, Lehkonen was an impressive +13 with 20 points this regular season. In comparison, he was a -2 with 14 points on the road. The Finn is a massive playoff factor and has been the last few years, always buzzing around during crucial moments.
This is a no-brainer.
