SLATE PREVIEW
Boston (vs. Columbus), Edmonton (vs. Montreal) and Dallas (vs. Anaheim) are the biggest favorites on the Moneyline. The over/under for the Avalanche-Flyers, Oilers-Canadiens and Red Wings-Sharks matchups are set for 6.5 goals.
GOALIES
Cam Talbot, DET at SJS ($7,600): Talbot has performed well this season, recording a mark of 5-3-1 with one shutout, a 2.42 GAA and a .927 save percentage. He has been excellent in his last five outings, posting a .941 save percentage and earning three wins.
Charlie Lindgren, WSH at UTA ($7,300): Lindgren will probably get the second half of Washington's back-to-back after Logan Thompson played in Sunday's 5-2 win over Vegas. The Capitals have gone 2-0 in the second game of back-to-backs in 2024-25. Utah has a 2-3-1 record in November while being shut out twice. Lindgren has plenty of bang for the buck upside for Monday's slate.
VALUE PLAYS/ONE-OFFS
Leon Draisaitl, EDM at MTL ($8,100): Draisaitl has four straight multi-point efforts, registering four goals and four assists. He has two power-play points (one goal, one assist) and 13 shots on net during that span. Draisaitl has amassed 13 goals and 33 points in 26 games against the Canadiens.
Artturi Lehkonen, COL at PHI ($6,700): Lehkonen has three goals, six points and 16 shots through six games this season. He has two goals on eight shots and one assist in his last two outings versus Philadelphia.

Nugent-Hopkins has three helpers (one on the power play) and seven shots across his last four appearances.

Washington's top line has been firing on all cylinders, and the trio should continue to roll offensively on Monday. Utah has allowed 3.29 goals per game (23rd overall) in 2024-25.
DEFENSEMEN
Mike Matheson, MTL vs. EDM ($5,800): Matheson has one goal, two assists, five shots and five blocked shots in his last three appearances. He could be a solid value play on Monday. Matheson has four helpers and 11 shots in his past six outings against the Oilers.
