There are only four games in the NHL on Wednesday, but that's still enough action for a three-leg parlay.

The pregame narrative: In the final game of the night, I'm betting on Anze Kopitar to find the score sheet when the Los Angeles Kings play the Seattle Kraken. I also expect a lot of goals between the Detroit Red Wings and Calgary Flames.

Check out the full +505 NHL parlay predictions Dec. 10, featuring a pick on the New York Rangers.

NHL parlay predictions Dec. 10

Parlay: Kopitar to record a point | Red Wings/Flames over 6 goals | Rangers ML (+505)

Kopitar to record a point (-115): The long-time King is now in his 20th NHL season and he still has some gas left in the tank.

Kopitar has 15 points in 25 games this season, but there's one particular part of this matchup I want to focus on for this pick.

  • The Seattle Kraken have the worst penalty kill in the NHL (66.2%).
  • Kopitar has scored six of his 15 points with the man advantage.

It is worth noting that L.A. has the worst power play in the league, but the team ranks above average for shots on goal (28.6).

That means the Kings continue to have a good amount of opportunities on a nightly basis. For that reason, I'm expecting the struggling power play to overcome a dreadful penalty kill.

The Kraken have lost six games in a row, allowing 25 goals over that stretch (4.16 per game).

Kopitar can certainly cash this leg at even strength, too. He has recorded a point in three of the past five games, all at 5-on-5.

Other picks

Red Wings/Flames over 6 goals (-113): The Red Wings are having a successful season thanks to a strong offence carrying a weaker defence.

  • They score 3.1 goals per game on the fifth-most shots per game (30.0). Detroit also has a top-seven power play percentage (24.0%)
  • The Red Wings have scored three or more goals in eight of their last 10 games.

That's a good base for this wager, but I also believe the Flames can contribute.

At home, Calgary is 7-4-2 this season. That's impressive considering its overall record is 12-15-4.

A lot of that success can be attributed to an uptick in offence. In the Flames' past nine home games, they averaged 3.5 goals. That is significantly higher than their 2.48 goals per game over the entire season.

Rangers moneyline (-143): The Rangers are surprisingly a better team on the road than at Madison Square Garden ... and it's not even close.

  • Home: 3-8-3
  • Away: 12-4-1

Additionally, they are playing up to standard lately after a tough start to the season.

New York is 5-1-2 over its past eight games. The overtime losses came against the Vegas Golden Knights and Colorado Avalanche, two of the best teams out west.

The Chicago Blackhawks simply aren't in the same tier. They are below average in goals for and goals against, and they allow the fourth-most shots per game (31.0).

They also play undisciplined hockey, taking the fourth-most penalty minutes per game (11.3). The Rangers have a few areas to exploit and should keep rolling on the road.
