Vancouver Canucks vs Nashville Predators Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Nashville Predators
The Predators are outside the playoff spots, but they seem to be trending in the right direction when it matters most. With 66 points out of 64 contests (W29, L27, OT8), they enter Thursday’s slate just one point behind the Seattle Kraken.
Moreover, they’re coming off a 4-2 win over Seattle in what was a must-win game for the Preds. Nashville have also won two of their last three.
The Canucks are nowhere near a playoff berth. It wouldn’t be surprising if they end up being the first Western Conference team to get mathematically eliminated from postseason contention.

Vancouver sit dead last in the standings with only 19 wins out of 64 encounters (L37, OT8) and have dropped two games in a row since their recent win over the Blackhawks on March 6. Furthermore, they’ve lost nine of their last 10 contests.
Even though the Canucks will be playing at home, they’re difficult to trust. They rank as the worst home side in the Western Conference with just six wins out of 31 outings at Rogers Arena (W6, L20, OT5).
The form tells the whole story here. While the Predators are far from being a dominant force on the road, they should be able to exploit Vancouver’s deficiencies and continue their playoff push with a win here.
Vancouver Canucks vs Nashville Predators Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Filip Forsberg over 0.5 goals
If the Predators are going to secure the victory in this matchup, then expect Filip Forsberg to find the back of the net. The star winger ranks second on the team in goals with 28 and also sits second in points with 53.
Even though Forsberg has gone pointless in his last two appearances, the star winger should be able to feast against one of the weakest defences in the NHL.
He has four goals in seven outings since the Olympic break while averaging over four shots per game in that span.
Vancouver Canucks vs Nashville Predators Same Game Parlay
- SGP: Predators -0.5 + Nashville over 3.5 goals + Steven Stamkos over 0.5 points
Our three-leg parlay suggests the Predators will win, although their puck line of -0.5 has a bit more value than an outright win. Either way, Nashville should cruise to a victory.
They’re also expected to score at least four goals, as they should take advantage of the Canucks’ woeful defensive numbers. Vancouver rank dead last in the NHL with 3.69 goals allowed per game.

We’re pairing those legs with a player prop on Steven Stamkos, who should find enough chances to get on the scoresheet. He might not be the one-man wrecking crew he was during his Lightning days, but he’s been playing well lately.
He’s riding a four-game point streak and has tallied seven points (three goals, four assists) in seven outings since the Olympic break.
Vancouver Canucks vs Nashville Predators Team News
Vancouver Canucks Team News
The Canucks will monitor Evander Kane’s status, as the veteran forward is dealing with an upper-body injury and is listed as day-to-day. A decision on his availability will be made closer to the puck drop on Thursday.
The rest of the injured players won’t be available for this contest. The list includes Filip Chytil (face) and Pierre-Olivier Joseph (upper body), although both are expected back before the end of March.
Derek Forbort (undisclosed) is set to miss the remainder of the regular season, while netminder Thatcher Demko is out for the rest of the 2025-26 campaign after undergoing hip surgery.
Nashville Predators Team News
The Preds will be close to full strength, and their only injury concern is defenceman Adam Wilsby. He’s dealing with a lower-body issue, and while he’s not expected to be available for this contest, he should be back in the lineup before the end of the week.
Otherwise, Nashville have no major injury concerns, meaning all their star players will be available for this clash. That includes the star trio of Ryan O’Reilly, Stamkos, and Forsberg, who also happen to be the only three players who have eclipsed the 50-point mark for the Predators this season.
