My Flyers vs. Canucks predictions are targeting Philly tonight against one of the worst defensive teams in hockey.

The Flyers are 56% favorites, and we're going to ride with them on the road in Vancouver.

Tap into my NHL picks for Monday, Nov. 9, and let's keep building the bankroll.

 TOP PICK
Flyers vs Canucks prediction: Flyers moneyline

If you love tuning into sloppy hockey (these teams have lost eight straight, collectively), we have you covered.

The Philadelphia Flyers do have a few advantages worth highlighting. Vancouver owns the worst defense in hockey, surrendering a staggering 4.6 goals per game, while the Flyers boast a top-10 penalty kill that should help keep the Canucks' struggling offense — and power play — in check.

The goaltending matchup also works in Philadelphia's favor, with Joseph Woll posting 3.6 goals saved above expected, ranking inside the Top 10 among netminders with at least nine starts.

In a matchup between two horrendous teams, this type of edge will make all the difference.

Covers COVERS INTEL: No team in the NHL has more expected goals against (46.51) than the Canucks, who own a -21 goal differential, the second-worst mark in hockey.

Flyers vs Canucks combo

We might just be in for some offense today, and if that's the case, I expect the big guns to have their fingerprints all over this matchup.

Trevor Zegras is coming off a strong month, dropping 13 points in 14 games, and while he's come back down to Earth a little bit in November, he's in the perfect get-right spot in Vancouver.

Elsewhere, Brock Boeser is rocking a four-game point streak and has the third-highest share of possible ice time on the Canucks, giving us enough volume to find the scoresheet.

Flyers vs Canucks combo

  • Flyers moneyline
  • Trevor Zegras 1+ point
  • Brock Boeser 1+ point

Flyers vs Canucks player prop: Joseph Woll 23+ saves

I'm expecting no shortage of scoring chances in a matchup between two teams allowing more shots on goal than nearly anyone else in hockey. The Flyers are surrendering nearly 30 shots per game and rank 28th in unblocked shot attempts allowed, giving Woll plenty of opportunities to reach the 23-save mark.

In what's about to be a loose hockey game, this is one of my favorite plays on the slate.

Flyers vs Canucks goal scorer: Trevor Zegras

Zegras is first on the Flyers in expected goals, is averaging over 18 minutes of ice time this season, and is quarterbacking a power play that has scored twice in Philly's last three games.

In what should be a high-scoring game against a team averaging 10.5 penalty minutes per contest, I'll ride with Zegras to cash us out.
