Our best NHL player props for Monday, January 12<\/p>\n Take a look at our best bets and expert analysis below.<\/p>\n Prop #1: Alexis Lafreniere Over 1.5 shots<\/p>\n -135 at BET99<\/a><\/p>\n There\u2019s been a clear uptick in shot volume from New York Rangers<\/a> winger Alexis Lafreniere<\/a> across his past nine games, and the 2020 first overall pick has recorded 2+ in eight of those contests while racking up an impressive 22 total on 46 attempts. Both of those totals rank second on the Rangers, too.<\/p>\n This is also a layup matchup. The Seattle Kraken rank 31st in Corsi For percentage at 5-on-5 and allow the sixth-most shots per game.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Prop #2: Lane Hutson Over 1.5 shots<\/p>\n -120 at BET99<\/a><\/p>\n The Vancouver Canucks<\/a> have surrendered the third-most shots per road game (31.2), and Montreal Canadiens<\/a> star Lane Huston<\/a> has recorded 2+ shots in six of his past 10 games while logging a monster (25:27 of ice time, including 3:41 with the man advantage.<\/p>\n Hutson has also paced Montreal defensemen with a 57.0 Corsi For percentage and 56.8% shot share at 5-on-5 during the stretch.\u00a0Finally, I also value Vancouver averaging the sixth-most shorthanded time on the highway this season.<\/p>\n Where to watch: Prime Video<\/p>\n Prop #3: Evan Bouchard Over 2.5 shots<\/p>\n +115 at BET99<\/a><\/p>\n With the Chicago Blackhawks<\/a> allowing the most shots to opposing defenseman and averaging the third-most shorthanded time per game, this is a soft matchup for Edmonton Oilers<\/a> defenseman Evan Bouchard<\/a> in this market.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n There\u2019s been game-to-game inconsistency, but his 115 shots still rank in the 99th percentile among defensemen.<\/p>\n Of course, Bouchard is also a go-to shooter with the man advantage, and sports a high-end 55.6 Corsi For percentage at 5-on-5 while the Blackhawks rank 26th in the metric for the campaign.<\/p>\n Where to watch: CHSN, Sportsnet West<\/p>\n Odds are correct at the time of publishing and are subject to change.
