An elimination game wraps up Thursday’s NHL playoff slate as the Vegas Golden Knights look to advance to the Conference Finals with a win over the Anaheim Ducks. If Vegas prevails, it will face the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Colorado Avalanche with a trip to the Stanley Cup Final on the line.
The Golden Knights and Ducks have been evenly matched all season long, and that competitiveness has carried over into this best-of-seven second-round playoff series. There’s been an interesting back-and-forth win-loss trend through the first five games, and if it continues, the Ducks would be in line for a Game 6 victory to keep their season alive after Vegas picked up a 3-2 overtime win on Tuesday.

Hard Rock Bet Sportsbook lists the Golden Knights as slight road favorites on the moneyline, while the Ducks are favored on the puck line in what’s expected to be another competitive matchup:

- Puck Line: Ducks -1.5 (+200), Golden Knights +1.5 (-300)

Check out these two picks for Golden Knights vs. Ducks Game 6:
Golden Knights vs. Ducks Best Bet: Beckett Sennecke Over 0.5 Points
Beckett Sennecke leads the Ducks with five playoff goals, including goals in each of his last four games. The 20-year-old was also the first goalscorer in three of those four games, another market available at Hard Rock Bet Sportsbook.
Despite leading Anaheim in goals this postseason, Sennecke has recorded just one assist. He’s largely been boom-or-bust from a points perspective because most of his production has come through scoring goals, but his plus-money line to record a point is still intriguing.
- Golden Knights vs. Ducks Game 6 Player Prop Pick: Beckett Sennecke Over 0.5 Points (+100)
Golden Knights vs. Ducks Best Bet: Jack Eichel Over 0.5 Assists
Jack Eichel leads both the Golden Knights and all playoff skaters with 14 assists this postseason. The veteran center also recorded 63 assists in 74 regular-season games, the 10th-most in the NHL.
Eichel has posted two assists in back-to-back games and has recorded at least one assist in four straight contests. He has tallied an assist in eight of Vegas’ 11 playoff games, including five multi-assist performances.
It may not be plus money, but Eichel Over 0.5 assists feels like one of the safer picks on Thursday night’s slate.
- Golden Knights vs. Ducks Game 6 Player Prop Pick: Jack Eichel Over 0.5 Assists (-165)
