Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction 

Vancouver comes into this game with a 7-2-3 record on the season and they will have the home ice advantage here. The Canucks haven’t really played well at home this season, going just 1-1-3, while Edmonton is 4-2-0 on the road. Edmonton has been very inconsistent through 14 games this year and they are only scoring 2.36 goals per game. The Oilers have also been awful on the penalty kill, as they are last in the NHL at 59.5%. Edmonton could win this game because they have a ton of talent on their top lines, but they haven’t looked very good recently. Take the Canucks at home.
