Tuesday’s NHL slate features ten games packed with marquee matchups, promising high-energy action, dramatic finishes, and highlight-reel moments. One of the night’s most intriguing contests pits the rising Detroit Red Wings against one of the Western Conference’s elite, the Vegas Golden Knights, with a familiar face from Detroit’s past, former Toronto Maple Leafs winger Mitch Marner, adding extra intrigue.

Are The Pittsburgh Penguins For Real?

Picks: Golden Knights ML + Mitch Marner Anytime Goal (+240)
The Red Wings have managed to edge out two wins in their last three games, both in shootouts against the Sharks and Kings. However, their luck may run out when they face a Golden Knights team coming off three days of rest and led by superstar winger Mitch Marner, who has historically given Detroit trouble.
For those looking to play it safe tonight, a bet on Marner recording a point and a Golden Knights win would be ideal. Unfortunately, BetMGM currently doesn’t offer that option, so the focus shifts to Marner’s goal-scoring prowess, which has been on full display against Detroit. In 28 career games versus the Red Wings, Marner has 18 goals and 19 assists (37 points), including 11 multi-point performances and a streak of five straight games with points heading into Tuesday’s matchup. Over his last 12 games against Detroit alone, he’s tallied 12 goals and 11 assists (23 points), scoring in nine of his last 14 contests.

This season, Marner has only scored in two games, totaling three goals, but he’ll look to take advantage of a familiar foe. Detroit, while winning games, has struggled defensively, allowing 27 goals over its last seven contests, the second-most in the league over that span.
The Red Wings will likely keep this game competitive, riding the momentum from winning four of their last five, including a remarkable six-goal comeback against the St. Louis Blues after trailing 4-0 in the second period. With an 8-5 record against the spread this season, Detroit could cover again, but Vegas is expected to eke out a narrow victory, fueled by Marner’s offensive firepower.
A $264.60 wager on the Golden Knights and Marner to score at +240 odds cashed for a $635.04 profit, pushing the total payout to $899.64 in return. With a loaded NHL slate ahead, it’s the perfect time to ride the momentum and keep stacking that bankroll.
