Trends
Dallas is 39-19 in their last 58 games against a team with a losing record and 6-1 in their last 7 games overall while the over is 4-0 in their last 4 road games. Vancouver is 4-0 in their last 4 games overall and 4-0 in their last 4 home games while the over is 17-7-5 in their last 29 games overall.
Pick
I’m backing the over here. I have a hard time trusting Dallas defensively on the back-to-back, but they can score goals and score them in bunches against a mediocre at best Canucks defense. I also think the Canucks can pop a couple themselves here and get us over the number when all is said and done.
