Canucks vs Hurricanes Picks & Props

At least seven goals have been scored in nine of the past 10 Canucks games. They've upped the ante offensively of late and should be able to cause problems for a Hurricanes defense missing Jaccob Slavin and Jalen Chatfield.

It’s been a smooth transition to the Hurricanes for Ehlers, and he’s piled up 48 shots on 92 attempts to rank second on the club in each through 16 games. This is also a soft matchup with Vancouver allowing the second-most attempts per 60 minutes and seventh-most shots per game (30.2). I also value Ehlers posting a high-end 57.0 Corsi For percentage at five-on-five and slotting in with the No. 1 power-play unit.

Vancouver netminder Thatcher Demko will be sidelined for the next few weeks, and the Hurricanes will feast on a Canucks team that’s allowing 3.5 goals per game and ranks dead last in penalty-kill percentage. Expect Carolina to pull away on home ice.
