The Vancouver Canucks (11-15-3) are looking to crawl out from the bottom of the Pacific Division against the Detroit Red Wings (15-11-3) on Monday.

The Canucks snapped a 4-game losing streak on Saturday with a 4-2 win over the Minnesota Wild. Aatu Raty scored twice and added an assist in the win. Nikita Tolopilo saved 28 of the 30 shots he faced, his best performance of the season. It has been almost a month and a half since the Canucks last won back-to-back games, but they will get another opportunity here against the Red Wings.

Detroit finished up November on a 4-game losing streak but broke that with their 1st game of the new month being a 5-4 win over the Bruins. A loss to Columbus was followed by a win Saturday over the Kraken to put them at 2-1 to start the month. While Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond were held scoreless in their last game, they continue to pace the Red Wings with 31 points each. They will need to get back to their contributing ways here against the Canucks.

Both the Red Wings and Canucks are near the bottom of the league in goals allowed. This one could become high scoring, and the winner may need to put up 4 or more goals.

Our Detroit Red Wings vs Vancouver Canucks Prediction

We have two teams here that rank last and 3rd to last respectively in goals allowed on the season. They also have each had issues killing off penalties this season and rank in the bottom tier of the league in that category. We expect these two to light the lamp a good amount in this meeting and push the total over the number here.

Our prediction for Vancouver Canucks vs Detroit Red Wings: Over 5.5
