The Vancouver Canucks (3-10-1) enter this Pacific Division matchup on the road after snapping a 10-game losing streak with a 6-5 overtime win at Anaheim, but they remain last in the division with a minus-22 goal differential and league-worst 4.64 goals allowed per game alongside a 63.8% penalty kill. Thatcher Demko remains sidelined long-term with a hip injury, leaving Leevi Meriläinen in net. The San Jose Sharks (6-6-1) hold a clear edge at home with 13 points and stronger special teams, led by Macklin Celebrini’s 15 points, though upper-body injuries to Alexander Wennberg and Igor Chernyshov have thinned their forward depth. Recent road form and goaltending stability favor the Sharks’ implied probability in trader consensus.
