A pair of strong defensive teams meet out West. Los Angeles has been on a tear to make the playoffs keyed by defense, up to #7 in the NHL in goals allowed. They are off a win at Colorado, allowing two goals and the UNDER is 6-1-1 in the Kings last eight games following a win. This is a big game with the Kings among four teams in the Pacific Division that are separated by six points or fewer with Vancouver leading the way. The Canucks are 5-for-33 on the power play in the past 15 contests, while Los Angeles has killed off 34-of-35 penalties in its last 12 games. Vancouver is 7-2-2 UNDER the total against the Pacific Division. And when these division rivals meet the UNDER is 3-1-2, including 9-4-4 UNDER the total in Vancouver. Take the UNDER in this one.
