Both teams are among the worst defensive units in the league, so expect goals tonight at the Honda Center. <\/p>\n

After snapping a 4-game losing streak, the Vancouver Canucks look for consecutive wins on back-to-back nights as they visit the Anaheim Ducks tonight.

Canucks vs Ducks prediction
\nCanucks vs Ducks best bet: Over 6.5 (-125)<\/p>\n

Vancouver<\/a> is hoping to string together consecutive wins for the first time since Dec 19 and 20.\u00a0
\u00a0
Anaheim<\/a> put the brakes on a 6-game slide, beating the Sharks 6-1, but this team is in danger of falling out of the Pacific Division\u2019s Top 3.
\u00a0
If they do, the Ducks can look at their shaky 3.51 goals against, the 4th-worst mark in the NHL. They\u2019ve allowed four or more goals in six of seven.
\u00a0
The Over has cashed in five of the last seven between these teams, and I expect that trend to continue on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Drew O\u2019Connor<\/a> hasn\u2019t scored in eight straight games, but he\u2019s in a prime position to tally, as he\u2019s scored in all three previous games against the Ducks this season. The last time he scored was against Anaheim on March 24.
\u00a0
Jake DeBrusk<\/a> notched his 20th goal of the year against the Sharks and registered eight shots on goal. He\u2019s got a generous 2.5 shot line Sunday, considering he\u2019s cruised by the total in each of the last two against the Ducks, totalling 10 shots on goal.<\/p>\n
