Vancouver in the 1/8 finals in six games was able to beat Nashville, not to say that the "nucks" easily gave this series, but in the regular season the Canadian club looked pretty good, taking third place in the Western Conference, falling behind the leader by only 4 points.
Edmonton had no trouble dealing with Los Angeles, winning the series with a score of 4-1, it should be noted that the "oil" played for the third consecutive year in the first round of the Stanley Cup with the "queens", and all 3 times won.
There is no clear favourite in this pair, although the last face-to-face meetings remained for Vancouver (5 wins in a row), at Rogers Arena is also more likely to believe in the success of the hosts.
Prediction: Vancouver to win. We recommend the “Match Winner 2” bet, odds 2.12
