Canucks vs Golden Knights Prediction
Vegas comes into this matchup after having their winning streak snapped last time out, but they have won four of their last five games. The Golden Knights are 7-3-1 at home this year, while the Canucks are 2-8-1 on the road. Vancouver is on a very long losing streak and they have allowed 4+ goals in four of their last five games. The Canucks have also scored two goals or fewer in four straight games, so they have been brutal on both sides of the ice. There isn’t much value with Vegas here, so I will take them -2.5 in this one.

Positive Trends
After reviewing the trends, I still like Vegas to win big here. The Golden Knights have covered the puck line in five straight home games against Vancouver and they have been great on home ice this year. Vancouver has failed to cover the puck line in four straight games and they are the worst team in the NHL right now. Take Vegas to win by at least three goals in this contest.
