Vancouver has won 10 of its past 12 games, including 4-3 in overtime against the New York Islanders on Wednesday night when Thatcher Demko stopped 30 of 33 shots for the Canucks. Casey DeSmith is expected in net tonight in a back-to-back spot and there won't be much of a dropoff as he is 4-0-1 with a 2.67 goals-against average and .916 save percentage. Calgary has lost seven of 10 although the Flames did get a 2-1 win over Montreal on Tuesday. Calgary averages only 2.60 goals, which is fifth-worst in the NHL and goalie Jacob Markstrom is 3-6-1. The Flames are 0-4 playing with one day of rest and 3-10 their past 13 games after allowing two or fewer goals their previous game. Calgary has lost five of six versus teams with .600 winning percentages. Take the Canucks as a Max Play.
