The struggling New York Rangers head West this Saturday for a matchup with the high flying Vancouver Canucks who have now rattled off 6 in a row. The bookies have the Canucks listed as pretty heavy favorites in this spot at -170, but it likely won’t be that easy given their lack of depth on the blueline.

The last time these two met was on October 20th 2019 where the Canucks managed to come out with a hard fought 3-2 win.
New York Rangers
The New York Rangers might be looking forward to leaving Western Canada, as they are coming off of games against the Flames and Oilers where they gave up a combined 11 goals in what turned out to be back to back losses. This Rangers defense will not get a break here as this Canucks team is loaded with offensive talent who will not make it easy on the visitors from New York.
No doubt the highlight for this Ranger’s team this year has been the outstanding performances of Artemi Panarin who now leads the team in both goals and assists and has totaled 55 points in just 40 games. He does get a good matchup here, as the Canucks do not possess too many great defenders, but will he be able to do it all by himself?
Vancouver Canucks
The Canucks are slowly becoming contenders in the Western conference after they found this great run of form. They now sit just 4 points behind in their division with a couple games in hand and if they can hold anywhere close to this level of performance going into the playoffs many people will see them as dark horses for the cup.
The Canucks last game was an absolute thriller, as they defeated the Chicago Blackhawks 7-5 in a game both team’s goaltenders will want to forget about. The production in that last game mirrors the Canucks production on the season as the goals were spread out among a bunch of players and they ended up with 4 players with 3 or more points.

Free New York Rangers vs. Vancouver Canucks NHL Prediction:
It is hard to trust either of these defenses, and although the easy move would be to go for the Canucks on the moneyline, I also do not trust them because of the question marks over their defense and do not believe they should be -170 here. Therefore I am siding with the over in this spot for the above reasons and because I can see the Rangers putting up 3 or more goals of their own.
