Tomorrow night we’ll witness the 2025 NHL 4 Nations Face Off epic rematch of Team USA and Team Canada as they battle for the championship. Their previous meeting in the round-robin stage was an absolute thriller, and with a title on the line, we’re expecting another intense showdown.
With Connor Hellebuyck and Jordan Binnington between the pipes, plus a few key American injuries, this could be a tighter, defensive game than the last. That makes prop bets all the more intriguing. Here are 5 of the best player props you’ll want to target for this final matchup between 2 powerhouse hockey teams.
Player Prop Odds: +190
We love anytime goalscorer bets and this is one you’ll want to jump on.
MacKinnon has been Canada’s most dangerous forward in this tournament. It’s no surprise as to why because he’s been flying all over both ends of the ice, using his speed and deadly shot to create constant high-danger chances.
He scored against Finland and racked up an astonishing 6 shots on goal in the previous matchup vs. USA. With Cale Makar back in the mix, Canada’s power play unit should be more effective, and MacKinnon will be a prime beneficiary of that.
If he gets another high-volume shooting game, which we don’t see why he wouldn’t, it’s only a matter of time before he finds the back of the net.
At a solid +190, this is a great plus-money play you won’t want to miss.
Player Prop Odds: -105
Hellebuyck has been an absolute brick wall for Team USA — and we think that might even be an understatement.
He made a whopping 31 saves against Canada in the first game while allowing a single goal and has been rock-solid throughout the tournament.
With Auston Matthews, Brady Tkachuk, and Charlie McAvoy all dealing with their own injuries, Team USA’s defense could struggle to contain Canada’s firepower and rack up some blocks. That means Hellebuyck will be tested early and often. This will be especially true if Canada dominates possession.
We expect another 30+ save performance from one of the world’s top goaltenders so getting over that 27.5 mark shouldn’t be all that challenging. This feels like a strong bet in what should be a high-shot-volume game for Canada.
Player Prop Odds: -120
Matthews has been dealing with some upper-body soreness and that caused him to miss the Sweden game. Despite this, there is some talk that he’ll lace up for Team USA, however, he likely won’t be at full strength against Canada’s tough defense. On top of that, he hasn’t been that mesmerizing the entire tournament.
In the first game against Canada, he managed just 3 SOG, and that was when he was a bit healthier. With Canada expected to control possession for most of the game, Matthews might not see his usual scoring chances and the shots will be minimal.
If he’s playing through any discomfort, we definitely see his shooting volume taking a hit.
He’ll struggle to get 4 shots on the net and even at -120 odds, we like this bet.
Player Prop Odds: -130
As one of the best players in the NHL and possibly the world, McDavid has been Canada’s primary playmaker in this tournament. While he’s not exactly known for lighting the lamp, he’s undoubtedly been racking up assists, picking up at least 1 helper in each of Canada’s last 2 games. He’s easily the best playmaker in the 4 Nations Face Off.
With Makar back and Canada’s power play trending upwards, McDavid should have even more chances to set up some goals. If Canada scores multiple times, it’s hard to imagine McDavid not being involved in at least one of them. Taking the over 1.5 on assists is a bit steep for us, but it’s still in the realm of possibilities.
At -130, this is a solid bet, given his elite passing and ability to create momentous offense.
Player Prop Odds: -115
Hughes has been USA’s most consistent offensive player. A big contributor to this is Matthews being banged up. He has at least 1 point in every game of the tournament so far and continues to generate chances for his teammates.
Even if this game turns into a defensive battle, Hughes is too skilled of a scorer and passer to be kept off the scoresheet. With Canada likely scoring first to gain some momentum, USA will need Hughes to step up and create offense to keep them in the game. This isn’t going to be the same game we saw last week, instead, it’s going to be a grueling battle to get points on the board.
Whether it’s a goal or an assist, Hughes getting a point at -115 odds is without a doubt some strong value.
This 4 Nations Face Off final should be another high-intensity clash, with Canada looking for revenge and the USA trying to grab the second win despite injuries.
Hellebuyck will undoubtedly be tested in the net and should rack up plenty of saves. As for the Canadians, MacKinnon and McDavid will push the pace, using their speed and skill to create some big scoring opportunities. Matthews’ injury might limit his shot volume, making his impact on the American offense uncertain. On the other hand, Hughes remains a steady playmaker for the USA, setting up teammates and keeping the attack flowing.
These 5 prop bets offer some serious value in what we think will be an unforgettable showdown between two hockey powerhouses. Lock them in and enjoy the on-ice action.
