Vancouver Canucks vs Detroit Red Wings: The Whales look better

Prediction for the NHL Vancouver Canucks vs Detroit Red Wings match, which will take place on March 18. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

In their last three games, Vancouver has won and suffered two defeats. However, the team has looked very good. First, they lost to Washington (3:4) in overtime, then they lost only one puck to a strong Tampa (1:2) and in the end confidently defeated New Jersey (6:3). With that, the Whales were one step closer to the play-off zone. They were just one point behind the upstart Vegas.

Detroit seems resigned to not being in the Atlantic Division's top four, as the game they are playing is painful to watch. They lost six of their last six games. If the team previously had any chance of reaching the next stage of the NHL, now they don't. The Red Wings sit fifth with 55 points and are 24 points behind fourth-placed Boston. Detroit lost to Edmonton 5:7 in their last meeting.

Detroit has been too bad of late, but it has no strong offensive problems. In the last three games, he has managed ten pucks, averaging 3.33 per game. Vancouver has a slightly better record of 4. In this pairing, we favor the victory of the Canucks, as they have good tournament motivation, plus they play at home. Prediction: Vancouver won't lose + Total Over (4.5).
