Vancouver at Toronto

The Vancouver Canucks had everything going last season, and then went into a swoon, lost their confidence and simply never recovered. That has all changed with a fresh slate this season that has them off to a stellar 18-7-1 start. They have played great on the road where they are 11-4 on the season. They have won five of their last six and three of those are by shutout as this team has reached a new high in confidence. Toronto is an improved team, but they have dropped off, and many doubt if this team can sustain their early success. The Maple Leafs have a losing record over their last nine games where they have allowed 34 goals. The Canucks are 11-2 in their last 13 on a day of rest, and are the choice here. Play on Vancouver.
