Vancouver - Vegas: NHL match betting tip
On April 7, Vancouver will continue its home series, which it did not start in the best way. The team will host a clear favorite in the face of Vegas. Our experts, in turn, will tell you about the current shape of the teams, as well as highlight the most optimal bids at the moment
Command Analysis
Vancouver Canucks
CanadaCurrent form
Returning to the home arena, Vancouver continued to lose points. The team hosted far from the most serious opponent, in the person of Seattle, but could not impose a decent fight on him, having suffered a crushing dry defeat (0:5). The Canucks are not very productive this season, but no one expected that the team would not be able to score a single goal for the Kraken. Goalkeeper Demko also showed a terrible game, reflecting only 77% of shots.
Continuing to perform in their native walls, the team fought with Anaheim and fully rehabilitated itself in front of the fans, interrupting its series of defeats, defeating the Ducks with a score of 6:2. Already at the end of the first period, the Canucks had a four-goal advantage and held it until the end of the meeting. It is difficult to even single out any of the players, since almost all distinguished themselves by their effective actions. At the moment, the club is on the tenth line in the Western Conference table, but it is separated from the playoff zone by six points, which is critical, since there are only six matches left.
Disqualifications and injuries
Aman, Myers, Khitil, Juulsen and Pettersson will definitely not play in the upcoming match. Heglander is also questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Vancouver scores only 2.8 goals per game.
- The Canucks receive an average of 9.15 penalty minutes per game.
Vegas Golden Knights
USACurrent form
Vegas has been in great shape for a long time and has not lost for six matches in a row. However, the team's long winning streak was interrupted at home, where they had to concede to Edmonton (2:3). The Golden Knights played very inactive offensively and made only 22 shots at the Oilers' goal in three periods, which was not enough. In the final match of the home series, the team faced Winnipeg and this time could not score a single goal, having suffered a dry defeat (0-4). Goalkeeper Hill also showed his worst side, which had to be replaced at the beginning of the third period.
The Knights were able to correct their main mistake and played attacking hockey away from Calgary, which finally allowed them to achieve the desired result, snatching Victoria from the Flames in overtime (3:2). The most productive was defender Theodore, who provided three assists. Striker Smith also scored a double. The slight decline had no effect on the club's position in the Western Conference table. He continues to remain on the third line and has long been ahead of schedule for the playoffs.
Disqualifications and injuries
Gertl and Lehner definitely won't play in the upcoming match. Samsonov also remains in question.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Vegas scores 3.36 goals per game.
- Golden Knights completed 30.4% of majority attempts

2.39Tip and bets
Vegas is outperforming Vancouver in all respects this season, as it proves throughout the regular season, and consistently wins confident victories in face-to-face matches. It is hard to believe that the troubled Canucks will be able to impose a worthy fight on one of the strongest clubs in the Western Conference, even considering their advantage of home walls. The Golden Knights are playing a great game on the road, where they have not lost for four consecutive matches. So we suggest not to take any chances and make a confident bet in favor of a clear favorite.
Our betting tip is a Vegas victory in 2.12
Bet on the total
Vegas has been experiencing problems lately with both creating and implementing offensive chances, which can also be said about Vancouver, which rarely pleases fans with effective hockey throughout the regular season. The Canucks will try to play as accurately as possible, given the serious superiority of the opponent, which means that you should not expect a large number of abandoned goals.
Betting Tip - total less than 5.5 pucks less than 2.02
Betting on the outcome of the first period
Vegas, due to its significant superiority over its opponent, should create powerful pressure on Vancouver from the first minutes of the match. We believe that the hosts will not be able to cope with the pressure and will allow the Golden Knights to gain an advantage at the end of the starting segment.
Prediction - Vegas wins in the first period with a handicap (0) in 1.67
