Vancouver Canucks vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction: Betting on the home team's final win

Prediction for the NHL Vancouver Canucks vs Detroit Red Wings match, which will take place on February 14. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Vancouver is looking unremarkable this season. It's not showing much, sitting in 12th place in the West with 46 points and sixth in the Pacific standings. They're not in the playoff zone, and even making it there would be extremely difficult for the Canucks. Moreover, nothing much has changed with a new coach - only three wins in seven meetings. Vancouver lost their last game to Detroit at 2:5.

You could say the same thing about Detroit. They are in 12th place in the East standings and sixth in the Atlantic Division. The Red Wings have 54 points, giving them a slightly better shot at making the playoffs in the regular season. It's hard to believe that's true. After two losses, Detroit secured two wins - 2:1 over Calgary and 5:2 over Vancouver.

In the upcoming game, we give preference to Vancouver. Both teams are extremely unstable this season; both are going through bad times. Still, after their 2:5 loss to Detroit, the Canucks must pull themselves together, work on their mistakes and rehabilitate themselves in front of their fans. We think they can do it - they're as strong as they are, and the Red Wings are capable of doing it. In addition, Detroit's performance on the road is worse than at home, so we'll take the home team's final win (including overtime and the shootout).
