Vancouver Canucks vs Los Angeles Kings
February 26th 2025 | 10:00 PM EST | Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, CA


Grade B+: LA Kings Moneyline (-180)
The Los Angeles Kings, boasting a solid 31-17-7 record, are set to host the Vancouver Canucks, who have been inconsistent with a 26-20-11 standing. The Kings have been in strong form, winning five of their last seven encounters against the Canucks. In contrast, Vancouver has faced challenges recently, including a heavy 6-1 defeat to the Winnipeg Jets, marking their fifth loss in six games. Notably, Canucks' goaltender Kevin Lankinen has struggled, allowing six goals on 33 shots in his last outing. Given Los Angeles' home-ice advantage and Vancouver's defensive vulnerabilities, betting on the Kings' moneyline at -180 is a prudent choice, earning a B+ grade for its favorable odds and the Kings' recent performance.

Grade B+: LA Kings Spread -1.5
The Los Angeles Kings, boasting a strong 31-17-7 record, are set to host the Vancouver Canucks, who have been inconsistent with a 26-20-11 standing. The Kings have been in solid form, winning five of their last seven encounters against the Canucks. In contrast, Vancouver has faced challenges recently, including a heavy 6-1 defeat to the Winnipeg Jets, marking their fifth loss in six games. Notably, Canucks' goaltender Kevin Lankinen has struggled, allowing six goals on 33 shots in his last outing. Given Los Angeles' home-ice advantage and Vancouver's defensive vulnerabilities, betting on the Kings to cover the -1.5 puck line at +140 offers substantial value, earning a B+ grade for its favorable odds and the Kings' recent performance.

Grade B+: Over 5.5 Total Goals
The Vancouver Canucks, struggling defensively with five losses in their last six games, including a recent 6-1 defeat to the Winnipeg Jets, are set to face the Los Angeles Kings, who have won five of their last seven meetings against Vancouver. The Canucks' goaltender, Kevin Lankinen, has had a challenging stretch, allowing six goals on 33 shots in his last outing. On the other hand, the Kings' offense, led by Adrian Kempe and Anze Kopitar, has been productive this season. Given Vancouver's defensive vulnerabilities and Los Angeles' offensive strengths, betting on the over 5.5 goals is advisable, earning a B+ grade for its favorable odds and the likelihood of a high-scoring game.
