*Koskinen vs Price in net...
*EDM 3-0 in 2nd half of back-to-backs this year.
THREE THINGS TO LOOK FOR
- A GOOD SECONDARY: Oh, did you see the two goals scored by the bottom six in Saturday’s 4-3 win over the Habs? More of those. Get Russell involved, it’ll be great. Either one.
- THEIR LINE: Vancouver’s got one really good line. It’s the Elias Pettersson - Brock Boeser - J.T. Miller line. This is the heavy lifting line for the Canucks. Stop this line, and you’ve got a good shot at taking two points.
- OUR LINE: Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl currently combine for 121 points. Let the good times roll.
Big divisional matchup. Let’s go.
