Vancouver Canucks vs Detroit Red Wings prediction

There’s reason to consider the Detroit Red Wings as they’re at home where they’ve played their best hockey, and they’ve won the last 4 games against the Canucks. However, as I’ve said time and time again this season the Canucks are a good hockey team and for some reason they don’t get much respect from oddsmakers. The Canucks have also shown time and time again they can win on the road. We’re getting the better team at a cheap price. I’d need more plus money to consider the Red Wings, even if they’re at home with the early start time. Give me the Canucks.
