The Vancouver Canucks will visit the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday, December 22. This marks the first encounter between these two teams of the 2025-26 season.

My Canucks vs. Flyers predictions and NHL picks suggest that fans should be in for a low-scoring affair, though Trevor Zegras may be in line to continue his resurgent season.

Canucks vs Flyers prediction

Canucks vs Flyers best bet: Trevor Zegras anytime goal (+180)

After a few tumultuous seasons with the Anaheim Ducks, forward Trevor Zegras has been on fire since joining the Philadelphia Flyers this past offseason. The 24-year-old leads the Flyers with 35 points and is on pace to smash his career-high in goals.

He's found the back of the net in five of his last six games, and tonight he faces a Vancouver Canucks team that is subpar defensively. The Canucks rank 25th in goals allowed and boast the league's fourth-worst penalty kill.

Expect Zegras to make his mark on this Monday night affair.

Tyler Myers paces the Canucks with 68 blocked shots, and has hit the Over in four of his last five games. Vancouver ranks 24th in the NHL in shots allowed, and although Philly struggles to generate shots, Myers has proven to be matchup-proof as a responsible, shot-blocking blueliner.

These teams rank 22nd and 24th in goals scored, respectively, and this matchup hasn't featured a game with more than five total goals since February 2023. The Under has hit in four consecutive games and in eight of the last 10.
