Canucks vs Predators prediction
Canucks vs Predators Best bet: Brock Boeser Over 0.5 points (-125)
Brock Boeser is known for his goal scoring and it’s been on full display in the early going. The Brockstar has found twine three times through just five games.
He is generating close to 10 scoring chances per 60 minutes across all situations, good for second among all Vancouver Canucks players.
We all know the kind of shot Boeser possesses. If he is getting opportunities in dangerous spots, he’s going to produce.
Creating chances shouldn’t be a problem against the Nashville Predators. They rank bottom-12 when it comes to limiting high-danger chances, expected goals and, naturally, real goals. They’re giving up a lot of opportunities and the goals are flowing accordingly.
Boeser is creating chances at an efficient rate and playing a ton. He’s skating on the top line, top power play, and logging just under 20 minutes per night.
Given how well he’s playing, and the massive workload, he’ll have plenty of chances to get on the scoresheet against Nashville.
Canucks vs Predators same-game parlay
Luke Evangelista is off to an efficient start to the season, producing more than two points per 60 minutes of 5-on-5 play.
He’s been rewarded with a promotion to the top line alongside Filip Forsberg and Ryan O’Reilly. That’s where you want to be if you’re trying to create offense.
The Canucks have scored at least three goals in three of the past four while conceding 3+ in five of the last six. There should be plenty of offense at both ends of the rink.
