Let’s take a closer look at my NHL picks for May 6.

Ducks vs Golden Knights Game 2 prediction

Ducks vs Golden Knights best bet: Leo Carlsson Over 2.5 shots (-155)

Leo Carlsson has taken his shooting to a whole different level in the playoffs. The star center has averaged 4.6 shots on goal and 6.4 attempts through seven games, clearing 2.5 shots in six of them.

The Vegas Golden Knights had a difficult time slowing him down in Game 1, allowing seven attempts, five chances, and four shots on goal.

They were clearly out-played during Carlsson’s 5-on-5 minutes, losing the shot attempt battle 19-7 and getting out-chanced by eight.

Look for Carlsson and the Anaheim Ducks' top line to cause Vegas problems 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. It’s tough to keep him off the scoresheet once, let alone multiple times in a row.

Troy Terry is Carlsson’s partner in crime and facilitates a lot of chances for him at 5-on-5 and on the power play. Terry also had five points over three games against Vegas during the regular season, with four coming by way of assist.
