10* Canucks PUCKLINE (PACIFIC DIV GOM)

I think the Oilers could be in due for some regression this year. I think the Canucks could take another big step forward this year. In what I see being a very competitive game, one which will likely be decided late, or even in extra time, I'm going to recommend to grab the visitors on the puckline option. Vancouver missed the playoffs last year, finishing fifth in the Pacific Division at 43-31-8. Edmonton wasn't that far ahead in second at 49-27-6. Jack Campbell is now in net for the Canucks after coming over from the Leafs. Last year he was 31-9-6 with a 2.64 GAA. The Oilers have a potent offensive attack with Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, but the sdefense was average. Thatcher Demko played for the Canucks last year and he finished 32-22-7 with 2.72 GAA. These two teams are more evenly matched than most think. I believe Vancouver could win this one outright, but the value here lies on the puckline option!
