Vancouver Canucks vs. Philadelphia Flyers Prediction

I’m on the Canucks and the plus money here. I get the case to be made for the Flyers at home as it’s where the Flyers have been at their best this season but Philly just isn’t playing well right now and I’ve been really impressed with the Canucks on their road trip so far, winning all 4 games. Vancouver I think is worth a sprinkle here as it’s their final game before the Christmas break, so I think we get a full effort from Vancouver in this one. Give me The Canucks here.
