Vancouver Canucks vs Buffalo Sabres Prediction & Picks - NHL

Prediction published on 11/28/24, 5:38 PM  by Edgar Jibran | Modified on 11/29/24 at 12:40 AM in NHL Picks

Vancouver Canucks will take on their fourth away game in a row next Friday, a game in which they’re considered as favorites according to the bookmakers’ odds due to the huge irregularity that Buffalo Sabres have had during their most recent games. However, it must be noted that the Canucks still haven’t found the ideal offensive effectiveness throughout the season.

With that in mind, it would make sense to have very offensive tactics from Buffalo Sabres since the beginning of the game but being totally necessary from players like Alex Tuch to become more regular, as they’ve been depending on Rasmus Dahlin to generate dangerous opportunities during the last 5 games. Also, they should play with caution as they couldn’t win in regulation time any of their last 2 games against Pacific Division opponents at home.

On Vancouver Canucks’ case this Canadian team just lost a streak of 2 victories in a row after a disappointing loss against Pittsburgh Penguins (5-4), a result that makes sense when looking that none of the Canucks’ players have reached the 10 goals line throughout the season. In addition, it must be noted that Conor Garland is the player with the highest participation rate during the season with 26.9%, a number that is low when compared to the best players of the league.
