Vancouver +153 over Florida

10:07 PM ET. OT included. The Canucks are flying under the radar, thanks to a mediocre 1-1-2 stretch and a 4-6-4 home record. Vancouver's latest outing, a 4-3 overtime loss to St. Louis, epitomized their recent struggles. The Canucks allowed the tying goal late in regulation before losing in the extra frame. Then there’s the Thatcher Demko factor.

Demko made his first start since April on Tuesday and looked understandably rusty, but he’s a game-changer when healthy. Kevin Lankinen figures to get the nod here, which has the ‘Nucks underpriced, but that suits us just fine as it’s going to take time for Demko to get into form. Elias Pettersson’s comments about adopting a “shoot first” mentality are encouraging, especially against a Florida team that can give up chances when they overcommit offensively.

The Panthers are on the second game of a five-game road trip, and while they handled Seattle, there’s potential for a letdown after such a tightly contested win. Moreover, for all their recent success, Florida has shown cracks, as their win in Seattle marked their first victory this season when scoring two or fewer goals. Relying on Sergei Bobrovsky to keep games low-scoring is a risky proposition. The Canucks are being offered at a premium price in a winnable game and, we’re happy to back the pooch.
