Golden Knights vs Canucks Moneyline Pick: Golden Knights (Ev)
The Canucks are at home, but there is value in taking the Knights as a slight underdog on the road as they look to secure a playoff spot.
Vancouver has been rather inconsistent lately, failing to put together back-to-back wins in two weeks. In their last five games, the Canucks have averaged 2.4 goals a game, including two goals a game in their last three home games.
With the Canucks’ scoring issues, the Golden Knights should have no issue outscoring them for the second time in a week. Vegas’ offense has continued to produce, scoring at least four goals in four of its last five games.
Vancouver’s expected goalie, Casey DeSmith, struggled in his first two games in April, allowing six goals in each, including the loss to Vegas. The Golden Knights should be able to get another win on the road.
