Both teams have won two of their past eight games. Vancouver will play its first game without Quinn Hughes, who was traded to Minnesota as the Canucks try to rebuild with younger players. They picked up forwards Marco Rossi and Liam Ohgren, and the Canucks could use some help in that department as they are #26 in the NHL with 2.75 goals per game. New Jersey is playing in the fourth game of a 4-in-6, and it is 0-5 in that situation. The Devils are 0-4 in the third game of a 3-in-4-day stretch. Vancouver is on a 6-0-1 UNDER run, and the Canucks are 4-0-1 UNDER in their past five games after scoring two or fewer goals in their previous game. The Devils are 6-1 UNDER their past seven against teams with losing road records. Jacob Markstrom is probable for the Devils, and he owns a 3.66 goals-against average and an .875 save percentage. New Jersey has lost five of six home games. Take the Canucks and the UNDER.
