Vancouver at Washington

The teams have met once this season and Vancouver was a 6-2 winner on Oct. 26 and the Canucks now are attempting to snap a losing streak after a 5-2 loss at Montreal on Sunday. The Canucks were tied midway through the third period before Brendan Gallagher scored the go-ahead goal for the Canadiens. Anders Nilsson had 40 saves for Vancouver and Jacob Markstrom is expected back in goal tonight and he owns a 2.76 goals-against average and .907 save percentage. Capitals goalie Braden Holtby has a 2.68 GAA and .917 save percentage and has allowed seven goals his last two starts although the Caps pulled out wins in both. There is huge value in the underdog in this matchup and take the Canucks.
