Anaheim Ducks vs Vancouver Canucks Prediction

The Vancouver Canucks are easily the better team and should like their chances to keep things rolling, as they’ve won seven straight Games against the Ducks. The Anaheim Ducks can’t string together consistent offense and have been held to three or fewer goals in eight straight Games. If the Canucks are going to gain ground in the standings and make something of this season, these are Games they need to take advantage of. Give me the Canucks and the PL for max betting value.
