Vancouver Canucks Betting Analysis
During the aforementioned rough start, the Canucks had the third most goals against and the worst penalty kill in the NHL. Since then, they’ve won eight of twelve, scoring the fifth most goals per game and a much more respectable twelfth on the PK. They are coming off a dispiriting 3-0 loss Saturday to the Wild, the first time they were shut out this season.
The good news for Canucks fans is that they’ve won their last five games on the road, and have been victorious in six of seven against the Pacific Division. However, captain Bo Horvat Tuesday addressed trade rumors that could be seeing him dealt, given the uncertainty of where the team is going and the fact he’s a free agent at season’s end.
Bo addressed the situation in a very honest and forthright manner. In a room that isn’t the easiest to be around, I can’t stress enough that Horvat is an incredible person. In the mould of the Sedins. Would be a huge loss if he’s gone. #Canucks

That potential distraction notwithstanding, the over has hit in seven of eight Canucks games played on three or more days rest, and the over is 8-2 in the last ten with Vancouver as a road underdog.
Calgary Flames Betting Analysis
Trying to figure out this enigmatic Flames team this campaign has been a fruitless endeavor – they won five of their first six – then went winless in seven – then took four of five – then lost four of five – then won three in a row – then dropped three in a row.
For the season, they’re 22nd in scoring (after being sixth last year), showing off-season departures of Johnny Gaudreau and Matthew Tkachuk have really hurt them – especially since the key player coming back in the Tkachuk trade was Jonathan Huberdeau, and he has 18 points in 26 games (after 115 points last season in Florida).

Despite being shut out in their last outing, Vancouver has been the more consistent hockey club in the last twelve games, with eight wins (Calgary has five in that span). The Canucks are a +160 road underdog against a very similar team, which is awfully enticing.
