Tip and bets
Bookmakers are offering even odds on both teams. St. Louis managed to get out of the slump and fans are satisfied with team's level of play. Vancouver Canucks, on the other hand, are in a poor form now, they experience problems in every single match. We are not expecting a miracle from the Canucks, so we offer to place a bet on the visitors.
Our prediction - St. Louis to win the match
Both teams are far from perfect on defense, they concede way too many goals, opponents prefer offensive style of play, so we will probably see a high-scoring game.
Our second bet is on total over six goals
