Edmonton Oilers vs. Vancouver Canucks Prediction

I’m on the Canucks here. It’s a lean because neither team is in the best of form right now. However, the price with the Canucks is still solid and I feel like Vancouver has more stability in goal even on the second half of a back-to-back. I’ll take my chances with Vancouver in this game.
