It's been an exhilarating weekend in the NHL, with some amazing player prop bets yielding significant returns. With only four games on the schedule tonight, there’s still plenty of action to delve into. Here are my top three favorite player prop bets for March 24 that you won't want to miss!

Top NHL Player Prop Bets for Tonight

1. **Anders Lee + Jean-Gabriel Pageau Over 0.5 Points Each (+300 at bet365)**

The New York Islanders are heading into a favorable match-up against the Columbus Blue Jackets, who have struggled defensively, allowing the highest expected goals against in the league over the past ten days. Columbus’s starting goalie, Elvis Merzlikins, has been particularly vulnerable, with a save percentage well below .900 since February and a dismal 3-10 straight up record.

The line of Anders Lee and Jean-Gabriel Pageau has shown strong offensive potential, outplaying the Bo Horvat line in recent games. If you're feeling adventurous, consider adding Anthony Duclair to this prop for even greater odds at +650! Given their recent performance and the Blue Jackets' defensive woes, the odds for this bet seem undervalued, potentially sitting closer to +220.

2. **Clayton Keller + Nick Schmaltz + Logan Cooley Over 0.5 Points Each (+200 at bet365)**

The Arizona Coyotes’ line of Keller, Schmaltz, and Cooley has been on fire, especially with Cooley recently elevated to the top power-play unit. They collectively racked up impressive stats, with Cooley scoring five points in three games, including a standout performance against the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Tonight, they face a Detroit Red Wings team that is struggling on the road, outscored significantly in their past two matches of a lengthy trip. This also sets the stage for possible power-play opportunities, as both teams rank among the bottom for penalty killing this month. Though the betting line has adjusted from Saturday's +300, anything at +180 or better should be considered a solid investment.

3. **Quinn Hughes + Brock Boeser Over 0.5 Points Each (+130 at bet365)**

In a game featuring the Vancouver Canucks against the Calgary Flames, both teams are facing some uncertainties. Canucks star Elias Pettersson is a question mark for tonight’s game, and while that opens up risks, it also presents a chance for Hughes and Boeser to step up in his absence.

Amidst Pettersson's potential absence, Hughes has consistently tallied points in every game since his return, while Boeser has found his scoring touch recently. The struggles of Calgary's goalie, Jacob Markstrom, who boasts an alarming .833 save percentage this month, reinforce the potential for success for both Hughes and Boeser. Keep an eye on the developments as we approach puck drop, as betting lines could shift significantly based on player availability.
