Result: Win
This is a 10* NON-CONFERENCE GAME OF THE MONTH on the Vancouver Canucks.

I think this is great line value and look for the home side to find a way to get the job done at the end of the night. Washington is coming off a satisfying 3-1 win in Calgary just last night while the hungry home side is looking to avoid a fourth loss in its last five outings. If history is any precedence, then the Canucks have to be loving their chances tonight, they're 12-2-2 in the series since 1998, including 7-0-1 in Vancouver. While the Canucks have struggled a bit of late defensively, note that goaltender Ryan Miller looked dominant in making 31 saves in Thursday's 4-1 win at St. Louis; and note that Miller is 4-1-0 with a very respectable 2.71 GAA this year and is 15-12 with a 2.50 mark vs. Washington lifetime. The Capitals are expected to start backup Justin Peters who is 1-0-1 with a 1.49 GAA, but note that Washington is a poor 16-24 (-5.4 units) in its last 40 vs. teams with winning records. And note that Vancouver is a superb 10-6 (+4.6 units) in its last 16 after playing three consecutive road games. I often find that "desperation" is a factor that the oddsmakers have a hard time properly quantifying into a line and that's definitely the case here, in my opinion this is the very definition of great line value; play on VANCOUVER.
