Blues Hit the Road to Take on Canucks Wednesday Night in Vancouver

Blues trying to take sole possession of first

St. Louis has been fighting with Chicago all season for first place in the Central Division of the Western Conference. Coming into this game, both teams are tied atop the division standings with 84 points, but St. Louis will look to reclaim sole possession with a win on the road Wednesday night against Vancouver. The Blues are 7-2-1 in their last 10 games played and have won two straight contests.

Canucks looking to add points to total right now

With not much time left in the regular season, the Canucks need to find their groove as soon as possible if they want to grab a playoff spot. Just a handful of points separate Vancouver and the middle of the pack in the Pacific Division of the Western Conference, so the Canucks have a major shot at grabbing a playoff spot in the fight for Lord Stanley’s Cup. To get into a groove, they will need Roberto Luongo to play much better in net.

At the online sportsbook found at Bovada, the odds for St. Louis to win this game are favorable. The line is -1.5 (+220) in favor of the Blues over the Canucks. Despite the favorable line, we like St. Louis winning this game with the over five total goals scored against Vancouver at -135. We will drop 10 percent of our bankroll on this bet. This should be an incredibly exciting game tonight between two talented Western Conference teams.
