Canucks vs Wild prediction

Canucks vs Wild best bet: Brock Boeser Over 0.5 points (-110)

To the surprise of many, the Vancouver Canucks rolled into Denver last night and beat the Avs by a score of 8-6. Brock Boeser was the main catalyst, scoring a hat trick and tallying an assist, which extended his point streak to three games. 

He’s been one of the Canucks’ main producers overall as of late, notching a team-leading 17 points in 15 games since March 1

The veteran winger has clicked skating alongside Marco Rossi, at even strength and on Vancouver's top power-play unit, and gets to face Wild goalie Filip Gustavsson, who has allowed 3+ goals in four of his last five outings.

Canucks vs Wild same-game parlay

Elias Pettersson is second on the Canucks in assists with 32 this season. He’s cashed the Over in helpers in three games in a row, setting up one goal in Wednesday’s impressive win. He’s also hit the Over in three straight road appearances.

Jake DeBrusk has cashed his Over in shots in four of his last five outings. The former Bruin put three pucks on net on Wednesday, and he'll have ample opportunities to let it rip against a Minnesota side sitting near the bottom of the league in shots allowed.
