Canucks vs Oilers Prediction
In this Canucks vs Oilers Prediction, the Oilers are coming as -335 home favorites. The Canucks continue to be one of the worst teams in hockey, having won just three times in their 18 games played this season and have the worst defense and second-worst penalty kill in hockey. They have allowed 4+ goals in eight of their last nine games and will face an Oilers team that desperately needs to bounce back after two straight losses, coming off an embarrassing home loss by the Ducks, so this is the perfect spot for them to get back to the win column. Their last three home wins against the Canucks have been with a total 15-4 score, so I expect a blowout win and a puckline cover for the Oilers today.
The Oilers are 7-3 in their last 10 meetings against the Canucks and are 3-1 in last 4 meetings in Edmonton. Over is 4-1 in their last 5 meetings.
