Canucks hope offense improves

The Canucks are off to a rough start with their offense struggling and scoring only 2.54 goals per game, with only six goals in their last three games. Conor Garland, Kiefer Sherwood, and Elias Pettersson have combined for 15 goals and 13 assists, but the rest of the offense has struggled. Only two skaters have four goals or more and opponents can limit the top-heavy offense as a result.

The offense has let the Canucks down, but their defense has struggled as well, allowing 3.15 goals per game. Marcus Pettersson and Filip Hronek have combined for 1.6 defensive point shares, but the rest of the unit has struggled, allowing opponents to find open shots on the net at will. The bright spot has been the play of goaltender Thatcher Demko, who has a .917 save percentage and a 2.41 goals-against average on 230 shots with 5.5 goals saved above average.

Nashville has struggled on both ends of the ice

The Predators are having a season to forget with their offense letting them down, scoring only 2.46 goals per game, with only nine goals in their last four games. Ryan O’Reilly and Filip Forsberg have scored 10 goals and eight assists to lead the top two lines but the rest of the offense has struggled. Only five skaters have three goals or more and opponents can eliminate the hapless offense as a result.

The offense has let the Predators down but the defense has also struggled, allowing 3.31 goals per game. Nicklaus Perbix and Justin Barron have combined for 1.3 defensive point shares but the rest of the unit has struggled, allowing opponents to find open shots on the net at will. The bright spot has been the play of goaltender Juuse Saros, who has a .905 save percentage and a 2.79 goals-against average on 325 shots with 3.0 goals saved above average.

Canucks vs Predators Pick

Money Line Pick For Canucks vs Predators

  • Canucks (+100) (4 units)

The Canucks look to bounce back from a rough loss and take over this game from the first period. The Canucks should create plenty of scoring chances against the Predators, who allow 3.31 goals per game, with Kiefer Sherwood, Conor Garland, and the rest of the forward unit carrying the puck into the offensive zone while creating open shots with quick passes. The Canucks should limit the Predators offense, which averages only 2.46 goals per game, with Marcus Pettersson and Filip Hronek stepping up at the blue line and cutting off angles to the net on the rush while limiting shots on the net, allowing goaltender Thatcher Demko to make plenty of big saves. The Canucks should win the game with a strong performance on the road.

Take the Canucks money line as road Underdogs.

Over/Under Pick For Canucks vs Predators

  • Under 5.5 (5 Units)

The Canucks and Predators have awful offenses and I see this game being a low-scoring one from the first period. The Predators should limit the Canucks offense, which averages only 2.54 goals per game, with Nicklaus Perbix, Justin Barron, and the rest of the defensive unit creating turnovers in the defensive zone while limiting shots on the net, allowing goaltender Juuse Saros to make plenty of big saves. The Canucks should eliminate and potentially shut out the Predators, who have scored only nine goals in their last four games, with Filip Hronek, Marcus Pettersson, and the rest of the defensive unit forcing turnovers in the neutral zone and defensive zone while goaltender Thatcher Demko blanks the shots on the net. The Under should cover in a low-scoring game with both defenses stepping up.

Take the Under on 5.5 goals.

The Canucks face the Predators with both teams looking to improve in the Western Conference.
