Vancouver looks to close out its series with Dallas here at home. Since a 5-4 victory in game one, the Canucks haven't scored more than two goals in a game but they haven't need to. Dallas has managed just 4 total goals int he past three games as Luongo has shut them down. He's saved 152 of 160 shots in the series. Dallas' strength is defense and they just don't have what it takes to break out of this offensive rut. The fact is, this is just an excellent matchup for the Canucks whoa re now 9-3 this season vs. good defensive opponents (averaging under 27 shots on goal per game). Dallas has lost 14 of its last 22 games while Vancouver has won 32 of their last 47. We like Vancouver with the momentum tonight.
