Canucks vs Panthers Prediction 

Vancouver snapped their losing streak with a win over Tampa Bay on Sunday afternoon, so they will be on a back to back here. The Canucks are 6-4-1 on the road this year, while the Panthers are 6-2-1 at home. Florida has won two of their last three games, but they have had problems stringing more than one win together over the last few weeks. The Panthers may not score many goals, but they play strong defense and have the better power play unit. Both teams are dealing with injuries right now, but Vancouver has allowed 16 goals in their last four games. Take Florida -1.5 here.
