Overview
Leo Carlsson has been a major shooting threat in the playoffs, guiding a talented Anaheim lineup with frequent shots on goal and scoring chances. Our Ducks vs. Golden Knights predictions expect his shooting to be on full display again in Game 2. Here’s a closer look at my NHL picks for May 6.

Player Spotlight
Carlsson has elevated his shooting to a new level in the postseason. The star center has averaged 4.6 shots on goal and 6.4 attempts through seven games, hitting 2.5 or more shots in six of those contests. In Game 1, the Vegas Golden Knights struggled to slow him down, allowing seven attempts, five chances, and four shots on goal. Carlsson spent plenty of time on 5-on-5, and Vegas was outplayed in those minutes, losing the shot attempt battle 19-7 and trailing in scoring chances by eight.

Outlook for Game 2
Expect Carlsson and the Ducks’ top line to pose problems for Vegas again in Game 2. Carlsson is averaging more than a point per game in the playoffs and ranks second to Nathan MacKinnon in scoring chance contributions. Once he’s on the scoresheet, it’s tough to keep him from contributing again.

Troy Terry’s Role
Troy Terry teams with Carlsson to create chances at 5-on-5 and on the power play. Terry had five points in three regular-season games against Vegas, four of them via assists, highlighting his setup potential for Carlsson.

Best Bets
– Leo Carlsson Over 2.5 shots
– Leo Carlsson Over 0.5 points
– Troy Terry Over 0.5 assists
