In this Canucks vs Golden Knights Prediction, the Golden Knights are coming as -280 home favorites. The Canucks have been the worst team in hockey this season but they have been playing their best hockey on the road. They are 2-8 in their last 10 games, but the Knights have been struggling last well, as they are 1-7 in their last 8 games, including three straight home defeats, so I see no value on either side. The Canucks have scored only two goals in five straight games, while the Knights have not scored more than three goals in four of their last five games. Both teams average 5.84 goals per game combined this season and their last four meetings have gone under the total. Take the under 6.5 in this one.
