A little over a month to the NHL season and two Tampa Bay snipers are top the scoring race to the Art Ross Trophy. Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov might be the best 1-2 punch in the league right now and are causing fits for opposing guards trying to keep the Lightning’s top line off the scoreboard.
Both Stamkos (24 points) and Kucherov (21 points) opened at +450 on BetOnline to take home the Art Ross Trophy and in their current rate will be worthy wagers for bettors. If you had to pick between the two, proceed with Kucherov as he finished third in scoring last season and Stamkos includes a recent history with season-ending injuries.
The Art Ross winner of last year has fought to begin the season. Connor McDavid finished with 100 points in his second season and led the NHL scoring parade the whole way. Valued at +500, McDavid could be in too much of a hole to conquer despite a commendable 13 points in 11 games.
Sidney Crosby, who has finished in the top five in scoring each year since 2012, is appreciated at +700. Crosby (12 points) hasn’t won the Art Ross Trophy since 2014 and astonishingly has just won the award twice in his career.
Some dark horses to consider would be Patrick Kane (2016 winner) and John Tavares, that are equally valued at +1000. Kane select a scoring series and can readily find hot. Winning teams have a tendency to score more, and this can help the Chicago winger once the season gets to a grind round the all-star break. Tavares, on the other hand, might be the most popular player in the NHL not named Stamkos. He’s scored two goals in his last five games and if he keeps up this pace, he will be one of the front-runners for the Hart Trophy.
