Vancouver Canucks

The Canucks played the previous game on their ice against Philadelphia and were unable to beat a tough opponent. 1:4 - the outcome of the meeting was decided in the second period when the Canucks conceded three unanswered pucks.

This defeat was the first in regulation time in 10 games for the team. Vancouver has had 23 wins in 36 games since the start of the championship and is still in first place in the Western Conference. Note also that the Canucks retain the top spot in offensive efficiency rating with 3.78 goals per game average.

Ottawa Senators

The Senators hosted Buffalo in the previous game and achieved their third victory in the last four games. 5:1 - Jacques Martin's team coped with the Sabres without much trouble.

The Senators gave a great stretch, but so far in the tournament, the plan for the team from the capital of Canada has had few changes. They are still last in the East with 14 wins in 32 games. However, we shouldn't forget that Ottawa has a few games in hand over its rivals.

Expert Betting Tips

So far, after the change of head coach, not much has changed in Ottawa - the Senators are still pretty good on offense, but they often concede more than they score. Vancouver has the best offense of the season, which will take advantage of the opponent's defensive shortcomings. We bet on the Canucks and a total over.
