Stars vs. Oilers Game 1 NHL Best Bet: Hyman Comes of Age

As if the Edmonton Oilers didn’t have enough firepower up front with Nugent Hopkins, Draisaitl and McDavid, they now have Zach Hyman having a career-best season.

We are looking to bet on him at top-rated sportsbooks to find the back of the net for the 3rd game in a row and the 8th time in 13 games this post-season.

NHL Pick


Dallas Stars vs. Edmonton Oilers

Thursday, May 23, 2024 – 08:30 PM ET at American Airlines Centre


Betting Trends

  • Zach Hyman is the top goalscorer thus far in the playoffs with 11 goals in 13 games.
  • Hyman ended the regular season as the 3rd highest scorer in the league with 54 goals in 80 games.

Hyman Can’t Be Stopped

Zach Hyman has been having a career-best season. Right now, he genuinely can’t be stopped, as he currently has the most goals in the playoffs and has scored in his previous two games. His goal in the previous game gave the Oilers a 2-0 lead as they went on to win the game 3-2 to advance into this round.

Having ended the season as the 3rd highest scorer in the league and the fact he is dominating the post-season on a two-game scoring streak, we are more than happy to bet on the big man to get on the scoreboard for the 3rd game in a row.

The only concern is the fact his record against Dallas hasn’t been very strong throughout his career, having only scored 5 goals in 16 games, but it’s the playoffs and anything can happen.

The Pick

Let’s take Zach Hyman at +125 NHL betting odds to get back on the scoreboard tonight. On the road, Hyman has scored five times in six games this post-season.

The Dallas Stars are going to have their work cut out for them tonight to keep all of the Oilers forwards quiet, including Hyman.
