Flames +180

Canucks -218

The Canucks can lock up the Pacific Division with a win tonight and they should get that win on their home ice.
Calgary is six games under .500 on the road this season and they will struggle against one of the best teams in the Western Conference.

The Calgary Flames will face off against the Vancouver Canucks on April 16, 2024, at 10:00 pm ET. DraftKings Sportsbook has the Canucks as -205 favorites, while the Flames are the +170 underdogs. As of now, neither team is receiving any significant majority of moneyline bets. The total for the game has been set at 6.0, which has garnered equal interest in betting on the over and under. This matchup promises to be an exciting showdown between two competitive teams vying for the win.

In this Flames vs Canucks matchup, Vancouver is on the verge of clinching the Pacific Division title. They lead the Edmonton Oilers by three points going into tonight's action, with both teams having two games remaining in their regular seasons. A win by the Canucks would mathematically clinch the Pacific, while a tie or a loss tonight would leave the door open for Edmonton over their final two games.

However, we do not expect the Canucks to leave things to the final game of their regular season. They should win and cover the puckline tonight against a Flames team that has been eliminated from postseason contention. The Canucks should take advantage of the road woes of the Flames, who are six games below the .500 mark on the road for the year, en route to the Pacific Division crown.
