<div>The Canucks flexed their defensive muscles on Saturday, taking home a 1-0 win over the Buffalo Sabres to win their fifth straight game. Sam Lafferty scored the game&#8217;s lone goal, and Thacher Demko shone between the pipes, making 26 saves to earn first-start honours.</div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div>Next up for the Canucks is a super rare early afternoon game agains the Columbus Blue Jackets. Here are three bets I like for today&#8217;s game.</div>
<h1>Player Prop</h1>
<p><a href="https://betway.com/en/sports/grp/ice-hockey/north-america/nhl">Ilya Mikheyev to register over 1.5 shots at -182. My $12.50 bet would return $19.37. </a></p>
<p>Mikheyev has been snakebit of late, and has not scored in his last 10 games but that can&#8217;t be attributed to his lack of shot volume. The Canucks forward has registered over 1.5 shots in six of his last eight games. I like this trend to continue against a Columbus team that&#8217;s bottom three in shots against.</p>
<p>Take this play at a full unit.</p>
<h1>Pre-Built Bets</h1>
<p>Vancouver to score a power-play goal at -150. My $12.50 bet would return $20.83.</p>
<p>The only part of the Canucks game that hasn&#8217;t been firing on all cylinders of late is the power play, which can maybe be correlated to a lack of opportunities during this road trip. This is a perfect spot for that to change, as Columbus takes the seventh-most penalties in the league and have a below average penalty-kill.</p>
<p>I like this play a lot and will take it also at a full unit.</p>
<h1>Pre-Built Bets</h1>
<p>Vancouver to win money-line and Elias Pettersson to score a point at -134. My $10 bet would return $17.50.</p>
<p>Vancouver has won five straight, and Columbus has lost four of their last five games. I like the Canucks again tonight, but they&#8217;re -200 on the money line; adding a Pettersson point as a &#8220;juice reducer&#8221; makes this a much more palatable play.</p>
<p>Pettersson has scored a point in nine of Vancouver&#8217;s last ten wins. Take this play at .8 units.</p>
<h1>Last Game Bets</h1>
<p>Elias Pettersson to register over 2.5 shots at -167. My $12.50 bet would return $20.  &#8211; MISSED</p>
<div class="mb-5">JJ Peterka to register over 2.5 shots at -110. My $10 bet would return $21. &#8211; MISSED</div>
<div></div>
<div>
<div class="mb-5">Andrei Kuzmenko to score anytime at +225. My $10 bet would return $22.50. &#8211; MISSED</div>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Pettersson and Peter ended with two shots each, and our Jekyll and Hyde run continued as we missed on all our picks. We are now up $162.80 on the season.</div>
