Vancouver Canucks vs Pittsburgh Penguins Prediction & Betting Tips - NHL
by Matthew Newman | in NHL Predictions
On Wednesday morning, the 38-16-6 Vancouver Canucks will welcome the 26-21-8 Pittsburgh Penguins to Rogers Arena. The Canucks ended a four-game skid last time out at home to the Boston Bruins, extending their excellent home form in 2024 to 7-1-1. They have hit a bit of a sticky patch on the road so these games at home are going to be crucial to them down the stretch. Two goals for Brock Boeser against the Bruins moved him to 33 on the season, good for 7th place in the league and extending his career high which had previously stood at 29. They are back on top of the league in goals scored this season, though the recent defensive issues have seen them slip down to 9th in that catagory.
The Penguins won a thriller in the battle of Pennsylvania early on Monday morning, topping the Philadelphia Flyers 7-6. That was an unusually goal-filled game for the Penguins this season who have kept things tight at the back. Sidney Crosby got his team-leading 32nd goal of the season in that game, just one behind his total for the entirety of last campaign. One of their biggest issues is the Jekyll and Hyde play of goalie Tristan Jarry. He has been excellent in three of his last five starts but shipped 11 in the other pair combined. The Penguins are only seven points behind the Flyers for the final playoff spot in the Metropolitan Division with four games in hand but not knowing which Jarry will turn up from one game to the next is stunting their progress.
