The Vancouver Canucks had the team destined to win it all last year, but failed in the Stanley Cup Finals. They have been marginal to start the season, still feeling the hangover teams experience from losing in the Finals. Vancouver has been shutout in two of their last five games, and going back to the playoffs that means the Canucks have been shutout in four of their last nine. They were shutout in the regular season just five times the entire year to put that in perspective. The Oilers have been great behind the net and on the defensive end of the ice at home this season where they have allowed opponents to score just 6 goals in their four played on home ice, or 1.5 goals per game. Vancouver has been 21-6-2 to the UNDER following a game where they allowed 2 goals or less, and Edmonton is 22-8 to the UNDER when facing an opponent off a game where they allowed 2 goals or less. The UNDER gets the call.
