Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction & Picks - NHL
by Dan Angell in NHL Picks
The Vancouver Canucks (48-22-9 SU, 40-39 ATS) can nail down the Pacific Division with a win in regulation over the Edmonton Oilers (48-24-6 SU, 37-41 ATS), who sit three points back with three games to play. Vancouver has dominated its fellow Western Canadian rival this season, winning all three games and outscoring the Oilers 18-6 in the process. That the Canucks are even in this position is rare territory; Vancouver hasn’t made the postseason in a full season since 2015 and hasn’t won a division title since 2013.
Edmonton has been the team to beat in the Pacific as of late, but the Oilers have been a step behind Vancouver all season. That might remain true here, as Connor McDavid isn’t expected to be in the lineup. With the Canucks holding the edge, the Oilers aren’t likely to rush McDavid back when they know they’ll need him to beat the Kings or the Golden Knights later this month.

Our Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction
The line has tightened because of McDavid’s absence, which is likely to favor the Canucks. Vancouver might be playing with a little pressure now that the prospect of a Pacific Division title is real, but getting to play away from home might be what this team needs right now. The Canucks have bullied the Oilers this season, and Edmonton isn’t anywhere near full strength without McDavid.
Edmonton’s coming off a loss to the Utah-bound Coyotes, who have been one of the worst teams in the NHL this season. So is Vancouver, which means both teams will be looking to get right in this game. That means the offenses will be hunting goals, and when two top-10 offenses go hunting for goals, the scoreboard operator usually gets a workout. Our prediction for Vancouver vs. Edmonton is Over 6.
