Canucks vs Avalanche prediction

Canucks vs Avalanche best bet: Brock Boeser Over 0.5 points (+105)

While the Vancouver Canucks are one of the worst teams in the NHL, Brock Boeser has had a respectable campaign offensively. He’s scored 18 goals and tallied 21 assists, and March was kind to the veteran.

He collected 13 points last month, scoring six and handing out seven helpers. He’s cashed the Over in points in three of his last four appearances. During Vancouver’s six-game losing streak, Boeser has at least one point in four of those games. 

When it comes to facing the Avs, the 29-year-old has a point against them across two meetings this season, and Boeser has posted 18 points in 31 road outings in 2025-26.
