Team Canada’s Nathan MacKinnon leads all players with +200 odds to score, followed by Team USA’s Auston Matthews (+210), and his teammate Connor McDavid (+230). MacKinnon, a top-two Hart Trophy odds contender, is tied for the tournament lead with three goals, while McDavid has potted two, and Matthews has been shut out.

When it comes to shots on goal, MacKinnon and Mathews have the highest total at 3.5, with each under juiced to -160.

Meanwhile, in terms of the netminders, Team USA’s Connor Hellebuyck boasts a higher saves over/under at 27.5, compared to 25.5 for Canada’s Jordan Binnington.

Prop Pick #1: Jordan Binnington Under 25.5 Saves

The ladder prop is one we’d like to attack to the under. Jordan Binnington has faced 26 shots or less in all three games so far, and has made 24 or fewer saves in seven of his past eight starts dating back to his regular season work in St. Louis.

The Canadian goaltending situation has been a topic of discussion since before the tournament began. The team is without a star in net, and Binnington’s appointment as the starter was a curious decision. The Blues netminder ranks 35th in goals against average this season, and 39th in save percentage.

Through three 4 Nations starts he’s produced a save percentage south of .900 twice. It hasn’t haunted Canada, however, thanks to the wall they’ve put up in front of him. Canada leads the tournament in expected goals against. They’ve blocked 58 shots, 22 more than the Americans. They’ve sacrificed offense in order to hide Binnington, and we shouldn’t expect that to change in the final.

• Canada vs USA Prop: Jordan Binnington Under 25.5 Saves (-102)

Prop Pick #2: Kyle Connor Under 1.5 Shots

Our under theme continues for our second prop selection. We’re betting under 1.5 shots for Kyle Connor, whose role has decreased exponentially. After starting the tournament on the first line, Connor’s been demoted to the fourth unit. He’s managed only one shot on goal through three games, and has the worst expected goals rate on the team.

He played only 8 and a half minutes versus Canada, and even with the Tkachuk brothers out versus Sweden, he logged just 14 minutes. With Brady and Matthew back, his expected ice-time is sub 10 minutes, which isn’t enough opportunity to clear this number.

• Canada vs USA prop: Kyle Connor Under 1.5 Shots (-110)

The highly anticipated Canada vs USA match in the 4 Nations Championship is just around the corner, and fans are eagerly placing their bets on which players will shine on the field. Player prop bets are a popular form of betting that allows fans to wager on specific player performances rather than just the outcome of the game. Here are some top player prop bets to consider for the upcoming match:

1. Goal Scorers: One of the most popular player prop bets is predicting which players will score goals during the match. For Canada, keep an eye on star forward Alphonso Davies, who has been in top form recently. On the USA side, Christian Pulisic is always a threat in front of goal.

2. Assists: Another key player prop bet is predicting which players will provide assists during the match. Canada’s Jonathan David and USA’s Weston McKennie are both known for their playmaking abilities and could be good picks for this bet.

3. Yellow Cards: Betting on which players will receive yellow cards can also add some excitement to the match. Players like Canada’s Scott Arfield and USA’s Tyler Adams are known for their aggressive playing style and could be candidates for this prop bet.

4. Shots on Target: Predicting which players will have the most shots on target can also be a fun prop bet to consider. Canada’s Cyle Larin and USA’s Gio Reyna are both known for their goal-scoring prowess and could be good picks for this bet.

5. Clean Sheets: Finally, betting on which team will keep a clean sheet can be a good prop bet to consider. Canada’s backline, led by Milan Borjan, has been solid in recent matches, while USA’s defense, anchored by John Brooks, has also been impressive.

Overall, player prop bets can add an extra layer of excitement to the Canada vs USA match in the 4 Nations Championship. Whether you’re betting on goal scorers, assists, yellow cards, shots on target, or clean sheets, there are plenty of options to consider for this highly anticipated match. Good luck to all the bettors!
