In this Mammoth vs Canucks Prediction, the Mammoth are coming as -212 road favorites. The Canucks have been the worst team in hockey this season and that wont change. Mammoth have fallen to the 6th place of the West where they are tied with the Golden Knights and need every win they can get in order to secure a better placement. They have back-to-back emphatic wins with a combined 12-4 score and I expect them to blow out the Canucks today, as they have already won twice this season with a combined 10-3 score. Take the Mammoth on the puckline.
