Artemi Panarin Points Prediction: Under 1.5 vs Kings | NHL Prop Pick March 21
Artemi Panarin's points prop is a sharp Under play on tonight's NHL slate. The Buffalo Sabres face the Los Angeles Kings on March 21, and our model projects Panarin to fall short of his 1.5-point line against a stingy LA defense. Here's why we're backing the Under at -225 odds.
Artemi Panarin Stats & Recent Form
Panarin has cooled considerably over his last five games, averaging just 1.2 points per game with only two multi-point efforts in that stretch. The veteran winger has been feast-or-famine lately, recording multiple games with zero or one point, which suggests volatility in production. His shooting efficiency has dipped, and he's facing increased defensive attention as Buffalo's primary offensive weapon, making consistent point totals harder to reach.
Matchup Analysis: Buffalo Sabres vs Los Angeles Kings
The Kings rank in the top tier of NHL defenses this season, particularly effective at limiting high-volume scorers in the neutral and defensive zones. Los Angeles plays a physical, grinding style that disrupts the offensive rhythm of elite playmakers—exactly Panarin's game. With Buffalo's offensive depth issues, the Sabres will likely struggle to generate the sustained scoring chances that would push Panarin over 1.5 points.
Our Panarin Points Prop Pick for March 21
Under 1.5 Points at -225. Panarin's recent inconsistency combined with LA's elite defensive structure makes this a profitable lean. The Kings will likely force Buffalo into a low-event game, and Panarin's propensity for single-point nights makes the Under the sharper play. The -225 odds reflect true probability here—this is a solid Kalshi prediction market value for players backing defensive-heavy matchups.
