4* Free NHL Hockey Betting Prediction: Canucks +1.5
For a moneyline pick, I’m taking the Oilers to pick up on a win over the Canucks and the road. With the moneyline sitting at -134, I’ll be locking in a bet on the Oilers straight-up.
If you’re looking for a puck line bet, I’d suggest going with the Canucks to cover. Even in the event of a Oilers victory, this game is expected to be closely fought, and the Canucks should cover the puck line.
If you’re looking at the over/under line set at 6 goals, our prediction is that this game will exceed that mark, and we strongly advise placing a bet on the over.
