The 24-year-old netminder started the season behind Alexander Georgiev on the depth chart but has taken the starting role after the latter imploded to begin the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Annunen entered in relief of Georgiev twice before making his first start against the San Jose Sharks, where he turned away 25 shots in a 4-1 win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But he played yesterday, and that means Georgiev is likely back in the net. He owns a 4.99 GAA to pair with an unsightly .811 SV% and is allowing -2.47 goals below expected per 60, according to Money Puck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bedard is following up his Calder Trophy-winning rookie season in style, with three goals and nine points in nine games. He&#8217;s already the best player on the Blackhawks and I expect him to produce tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not much has to be said about Makar, who is -455 to find the stat sheet tonight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"cacheembed:98601\">Embed: #98601<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 25-year-old is the best defenceman on the planet and has 16 points, cashing this bet in every single game. Last year he led all rearguards with 1.17 points per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chicago is starting Petr Mrazek and he&#8217;s been poor, posting a 3.20 GAA and .893 SV% in seven starts.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Colorado (4.00) and Chicago (3.44) are allowing the fourth and 11th-most goals per game, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Keller to score 2+ points (+200):<\/strong> It&#8217;s difficult to contextualize how bad the Sharks are, but let me try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"cacheembed:98603\">Embed: #98603<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They went 19-54-9 last season, putting up the lowest points percentage this millennium (.287). Things are even worse for San Jose now as it is 0-7-2 through nine games while allowing the second-most goals per game (4.22).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s a feeding frenzy for every team that plays the Sharks and I expect Keller to be the latest beneficiary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Utah Hockey Club forward has nine points in as many games, cashing this bet twice. Those aren&#8217;t eye-popping numbers but he still leads the team in shots (28) and is second in chances (50), per Natural Stat Trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>NHL picks made at 3:15 p.m. ET 10\/28\/2024.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s top NHL prop pick is a parlay featuring Connor Bedard and Cale Makar.
