November 6th, 2014 Vancouver Canucks @ San Jose Sharks

Season Record:11-7 +3.97 Units

Week Record:2-0 +2.60 Units

Let’s take a look at some betting trends for this match-up. Vancouver is 5-1 SU in its last 6 games and 5-2 SU in its last 7 games on the road. Vancouver is 1-10 SU in its last 11 games when playing San Jose and 1-5 SU in its last 6 games when playing on the road against San Jose. However, San Jose is 2-4 SU in its last 6 games at home. Vancouver is third highest scoring team in the league at 3.3 goals per game. Also, Vancouver is third in the league in shots at 32.2 per game. San Jose is third on the power play in the league at 25.6%.

Vancouver is surging right now heading into this second game of a four game road trip. San Jose have keep things stable for the most part after going on a four game losing streak just over a week ago. Looking into this match-up I wanted to know which team had the best player on the ice at this given moment. Doesn’t mean he’s actually the best player on the ice just the hottest player for the moment. That player I believe is Ryan Miller who will be in net for the Canucks tonight. Miller has won six straight starts with a 1.65 goals-against average and is off to a 9-1-0 start with his new team. Meaning when Mr. Miller is in Net the Canucks have a great chance to win the game.

Also, take a look at the odds for Vancouver. The opening number was 2.36 yet 5dimes has Vancouver at 2.20. Also, according to 5dimes 75% of all bettors are siding with the Sharks yet the line is moving the other way. Meaning “sharp” money may very well be on the Canucks tonight. I love the Canucks chances tonight as a road dog. Best of Luck!!!
