Canucks vs. Devils Picks
Money Line Pick for Canucks vs. Devils
- Vancouver Canucks +116 (4 Units)
Neither team is playing well at the moment, with the Canucks losing three of their last four road games, and the Devils losing four of their last five home games. But the Canucks have the edge here because they’re playing a little better. They scored only four goals in their last three road games, but they’ve played better on special teams, converting over 19 percent of their power play opportunities. The Devils aren’t good at killing penalties and they’re not playing well defensively, giving up 14 goals in their last three home games, so expect the Canucks to take advantage of their defense.
New Jersey will have a hard time keeping up offensively because they managed four goals in their last three home games, all of which came in their last game. They’ve played better on special teams, converting over 20 percent of their power play chances. The Canucks have also had trouble killing penalties, but they’re playing better defensively, giving up eight goals in their last three road games, so expect them to keep the Devils’ offense in check. Take Vancouver to cover the spread.
