Vancouver won the last meeting 3-1 on March 7 and the Canucks are close to clinching the Pacific Division with a five-point lead over Edmonton. The Canucks defeated Anaheim 3-2 on Sunday when Dakota Joshua scored twice, including the tiebreaking goal, and Arturs Silovs stopped 20 shots in his first NHL game this season. Casey DeSmith is expected tonight and he is 11-7-6 with a 2.71 goals-against average and a .900 save percentage. Vancouver is 8-1-1 UNDER its past 10 games and Vegas is 7-2 UNDER its past nine. Both teams have been playing well defensively with good goaltending. The Golden Knights are home following a four-game trip and they are 8-1 UNDER their past nine games against Pacific Division opponents. The value lies in the road underdog in this matchup. Book a Max Play on the Canucks, and bet this game to stay UNDER the total.

Vancouver at Vegas
10:07 PM Eastern
Vegas won the only meeting this season 4-1 on Nov. 30, but that was when the Golden Knights were healthier. Recently, they've lost eight of their past 10 games while dealing with injuries, including their last three. The Golden Knights have allowed 18 goals their past three games and that includes a 6-3 loss to lowly Columbus on Monday night. Vancouver appears to have turned things around after a rough stretch and the Canucks have won two straight road games against Anaheim and Los Angeles and both were 2-1 decisions with the Kings game going into overtime on Tuesday. Thatcher Demko stopped 23 of 24 shots for the Canucks and he now is 32-13-2 with a 2.52 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage with five shutouts this season. Vegas is 0-6 versus teams that allowed two or fewer goals their previous game and 0-5 after allowing at least five goals. Make it a Max Play on the Canucks.
