Los Angeles at Vancouver

To this point, this series has been even all the way around with each team scoring 14 times, and tied at two games apiece. This is a pivotal game and the Canucks are the better team, playing on home ice. The Canucks have been 13-4 here over their last 17 games, outscoring their opponents by a 64-40 margin, or by 1.25 goals per game. The 13 wins show a winning margin of 30 goals - quite impressive. The Kings are not at their best playing in this range, posting a 24-50 mark in their last 74 as a dog of +151 to +200, winning just one in their last six in Vancouver. I'll go with Vancouver in this one.
