Hello everybody and welcome! We bring you another Stanley Cup Final playoff edition of NHL DFS on PrizePicks and that means our friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play. You will need to be correct on each of your selections to win on the power play, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.
Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the best, and easiest to win, NHL DFS games in the industry. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.
PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score. This game involves selecting various players and determining if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game. The second game is known as Single Stat. For NHL, Single Stat consists of save and shooter shot props in which you determine if the goalie or shooter in question will go over or under their projected save and shot total respectively. You can mix and match players from each type of game in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. For today's article, we are going to try and focus on the main board's Fantasy Score and see which players may go over or under their projected point totals. Let's see what the board offers today!

Please note that this is for tonight's Game 2. This gives us even more time to focus on hints on Slack and social media as well. There will be a few more picks on social media as conditions and statuses change.
Fantasy Score Point Totals
Nikita Kucherov Over 5.0 Points. Sometimes we underestimate the ability of a forward even one as highly skilled as a Kucherov. He has three goals and two assists in the series so far against Montreal. Game 3 showcased the right-winger as he fired six shots on goal with a goal and assist. Montreal had few answers at all defensively for the Russian. Expect the Canadiens to have a better effort in containing the talented winger. Still, take, the over here anyway. Kucherov finds ways to get his points and his shot looks healthy much like his skating now. Worse comes to worst, the Steven Stamkos over at 3.4 points is something to look at as well.
Tyler Toffoli Under 2.6 Points. Monday night may feature another installment of will Toffoli even get a point let alone a goal? Montreal, at times, looks completely out of place in this series. While a better effort is expected, Toffoli will be targeted by the Tampa Bay third line which is the best third line in hockey. Toffoli and his offense have dried up a lot (two points in his last seven games). He has just five shots on goal over these previous three games with no points and one blocked shot. Most forget that the winger can be easily bottled up with him struggling just getting shots and chances on goal. Just look again toward Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki.
Brayden Point Under 4.0 Points. This could be a little bit of risk also. However, Point simply just could not muster anything since Game 1. The opening game saw Point create havoc at every turn. He had three scoring chances, three shots on goal, and most importantly three assists. Since then, the center has just one shot on goal over two games. That's it. That is no misprint. It is hard to take any over as far as Point at this juncture. Even shot props for single stats on PrizePicks would not be a wise place to risk Point. Simply, the idea is to look elsewhere on Monday night.
Cole Caufield Over 2.6 Points. Aside from the lack of shots, Caufield looked a little more like himself during Game 3 at times. He had an assist, a shot on goal, and a block. He did have three scoring chances which Caufield missed shots on. That is a bit unusual. The expectation is that Caufield did get more to the scoring areas against Tampa Bay during Game 3. This is unlike any other game so far in the series. The key for the winger should be more opportunities on the man advantage. Both teams had just one each in Game 3.
