We have just one NHL Playoff matchup for Tuesday night’s slate, a Game 2 matchup between the Avalanche and Wild. Colorado is up 1-0 in the series after winning 9-6 in Game 1. Surely, if that many goals were scored in Game 1, we can find some more valuable anytime goal scorer picks for Game 2, right?

Below, I’ll break down my top anytime goal scorer picks on DraftKings Sportsbook.

Best anytime goal scorer picks for Tuesday 5/5/26

Ryan Hartman Anytime Goalscorer (+285)

Hartman totaled seven shots, 11 shot attempts and a goal in Game 1, and he should continue to cook offensively as long as he logs first-line minutes alongside Kirill Kaprizov and Mats Zuccarello. He ranked fourth in ice time in Game 1 among Wild forwards, only behind his line-mates and Matt Boldy, and he plays on the first power play unit, as well. Hartman ranks second in xGoals per 60 and fourth in both shots per 60 and shot attempts per 60. I’m not expecting another 9-6 score in Game 2, but both of these offenses are potent and more than capable of finding the back of the net regularly.

Nazem Kadri Anytime Goalscorer (+245)

Kadri finally found the back of the net in Game 1, while registering eight shots and nine shot attempts. The reason Colorado is so scary is because of its depth, and the fact that Kadri logs third-line minutes is quite crazy in its own right. Those depth forward lines tend to show up in playoff games, and I’m expecting the 35-year-old to remain aggressive offensively and keep getting pucks on the net. Colorado’s third line has been efficient, with both Ross Colton and Kadri ranking first and second, respectively, in shots per 60, and that type of production should continue, especially if these games stay high-scoring.
