Canucks vs Flyers Prediction 11/9/26 NHL Picks Today

Canucks vs Flyers Prediction

The Flyers have a lot of frustrating losses; they can’t find consistent offense, and they’ve had no success on the road. However, the Canucks are dreadful and not a team you should be eager to back. The Canucks have one win since October 4. That’s more than a month with just one more win than you while you’ve been sitting on your couch. The Canucks deserve zero of your attention. They’re 32nd in goals against and shots against, and they’re 31st in penalty kill percentage.

The Canucks are the worst defense in the NHL, and it’s led to endless losses and made them the least profitable team in the sport. No team has lost NHL bettors more money this season than the Canucks. Yes, the Flyers are in rough shape themselves, but there are levels to the suck. If the Flyers are serious about turning around their season, they should win this game. I’ll roll with the Flyers.
