NHL Same-Game Parlay: Eichel Leads Golden Knights-Wild SGP Picks

The Minnesota Wild are fighting for their playoff lives tonight, facing elimination against the Vegas Golden Knights in what’s shaping up to be a dramatic Game 6 showdown.

Vegas has pushed Minnesota to the brink after two heartbreaking overtime wins in Games 4 and 5, turning what was once a promising 2-1 Wild series lead into a 3-2 deficit.

The odds aren’t looking great for Minnesota. Vegas is a heavy favorite to close out the series, with oddsmakers giving them a -750 chance to advance.

But there’s still hope for Wild fans. They’re playing on home ice, where they’ve been tough to beat all season. The home team is a +140 underdog for tonight’s game.

Jack Eichel has been particularly dangerous for Vegas on the road lately. He’s been putting pucks on net consistently, averaging over three shots per game in his last five road matchups against winning teams.

His teammate Mark Stone has shown similar road success, consistently testing opposing goalies when playing away from Vegas.

The total for tonight’s game sits at 5.5 goals, with equal odds on both the over and under at -110.

For Minnesota, they’ll need more from their star Kirill Kaprizov, who’s been relatively quiet in recent games. The model suggests he might struggle again tonight, projecting just half a point for the Russian forward.

Three other NHL playoff series also feature Game 6 matchups tonight, with home teams in similar must-win situations.

For bettors looking to combine multiple bets, a parlay featuring Eichel and Stone shot totals along with Kaprizov’s point total would pay out at +341.

The pressure’s on Minnesota now. Win tonight, and they force a winner-take-all Game 7. Lose, and their season’s over.
