Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on November 19. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Vancouver Canucks

Vancouver is a very decent team in terms of player selection, which last season should have already claimed to solve the big problems, but too late, decided to change the head coach, because of which they did not reach the Cup Eight. In the current regular season, the Canucks decided to work on their mistakes and therefore started to collect points from the very first matches. In 17 games, they have lost only four times in regulation time; one more defeat was in overtime, and Rick Tocchet's wards celebrated success in the remaining 12 games. That's enough to sit second in the Western Conference standings, two points behind the leader.

Seattle Kraken

Seattle became a sensation team at the end of last season. In their second year of existence, the Krakens managed to make the playoffs, which was surprising, and to send the reigning Stanley Cup winner on vacation. It seemed that after such a brilliant performance, they would play productively in the current championship, but so far, they have allowed too many point losses. In 18 games, they have won only six times, four more points have been scored when losing out of regulation time, and in the remaining eight games, they have been held scoreless. This has resulted in only a tenth-place finish in the Western Conference standings.

Expert Betting Tips

Vancouver and Seattle started the current regular season in very different ways. The brightest evidence of this is the tournament position of the teams: Canucks are in second place in the Western Conference, and Kraken - only tenth. For the upcoming battle, the Canadian squad is on a great run, and this is especially true for home games, as they have won the last four games in a row at Rogers Arena. It's hard to play here and the opponents, who have only once won on this road trip in official head-to-head meetings.

The confrontation between Vancouver and Seattle is very rich in goals and emotions. Throughout history, the rivals have held eight official head-to-head meetings, in which they have scored 61 pucks (7.63 per game on average), a very decent indicator by the standards of the NHL. It was only in the very first meeting that the bookmaker's total over was not reached.
