Game 4 Prop #1: Nathan MacKinnon anytime goal scorer

-105 at BET99

Nathan MacKinnon has been his superstar self in these playoffs. The 30-year-old has scored five goals in just seven games, including in four straight contests. The opportunities have certainly been there.

It's not hard to tell when and how MacKinnon turned his fortunes around in the playoffs. He scored zero goals on four shots in the  Colorado Avalanche's first three games, and he's lit the lamp five times since on 18 shots — averaging 4.6 per game.

His playoff shooting percentage of 20% is up from his regular-season mark of 15.1%,and there's no reason for him to adjust his playstyle as his Avs look to take a 3-1 series lead back to Colorado.

Game 4 Prop #2: Kirill Kaprizov Over 0.5 assists

-115 at BET99

Kirill Kaprizov is one of the highest-paid players in the NHL for a reason. He's already notched 10 assists this postseason,  handing out a helper in four of his last six games.

The superstar is the driving force for the  Minnesota Wild , and he's found plenty of success with his projected linemates tonight.

The line of Kaprizov, Ryan Hartman , and Mats Zuccarello has played 65:07 minutes together in the playoffs, sporting a 53.38% Corsi For (CF%) at 5-on-5 .

They've also created 16 high-danger chances while scoring six times, showing just how good they are together. Pair that 5-on-5 dominance with Kaprizov's spot on Minnesota's PP1, and you've got a recipe for an assist on your hands.

Game 4 Prop #3: Gabriel Landeskog Over 0.5 assists

+140 at BET99

The Avalanche should be thrilled to have  Gabriel Landeskog producing the way he is right now.

The Swede has grabbed eight points in the playoffs, and he's served as one of their top playmakers. Landeskog has five assists, and he's cashed the Over in four consecutive appearances.

Playing on the second line with  Brock Nelson and Valeri Nichushkin , who combined for 50 goals during the season, he's in a good position to tally another helper.

Landeskog is also on a stacked PP1 unit that has scored in every game this series, operating at 36%.
