The Vancouver Canucks have played some decent hockey lately, winning four of their last five games including massive upset wins at Dallas (+190) and Chicago (+200).

Three of their last four games have gone past regulation, and I think this is a good spot to back the Nucks on the puckline. Sure, they will face a red hot Calgary Flames side that has won five of its last six, but keep in mind that the home team is 11-4 in the last 15 meetings.

We can also note that Vancouver (somehow) still is in the playoff picture entering Saturday just four points shy of a postseason berth. "It's just crazy," center Bo Horvat told reporters, referring to the team's renewed playoff contention. "It just shows you never know what can happen. Down the stretch here we have been playing some good hockey. We're just going to keep plugging away and try and make a run for it. We're playing good hockey. We just have to keep it up."

8* play on Vancouver Canucks.
