The Canucks have had a strong start to the season, boasting a win percentage of 0.67 and currently ranking second in their division. They have been particularly impressive on the offensive front, with Brock Boeser leading the team with six goals and Elias Pettersson contributing with eight assists and a total of 10 points.

Despite this, they have shown flashes of brilliance, particularly in their most recent game where they secured a 6-5 victory in overtime against the Canucks. Brandon Saad and Robert Thomas have been standout performers for the Blues, with Saad netting two goals and Thomas providing four assists and a total of five points. The Blues will be relying heavily on these players to break through the Canucks’ defense.

Both teams have had their strengths and weaknesses this season, but this game could come down to a battle of the offenses. The Canucks have been scoring an average of 3.33 goals per game, while the Blues have been slightly more potent with an average of 4 goals per game. This, coupled with the fact that the Canucks have been more successful in covering the spread, makes for an exciting match-up that could go either way.
