Tony Sartori breaks down Saturday's NHL game between the Ottawa Senators and Vancouver Canucks, including a betting prediction.

It is possible Vancouver goes with Thatcher Demko in net instead of Delia, who has made four starts over the past five games since returning from injury. If he qualified, he would rank 28th among starting goaltenders in goals saved above expected per 60 minutes (GSAx/60) at 5-on-5. We may be compensated for the links provided on this page. While Demko has been solid since returning, he still possesses a .895 SV% and a 3.56 GAA on the season. Over that span, the Sens have scored at least five goals in all six of their victories.

Ottawa’s blue line is also starting to improve, surrendering two or fewer goals in four of those six aforementioned victories. After a slow first-half of the season, this positive regression offensively is not shocking. At 5-on-5, Ottawa ranks just 25th in the league in goals for per 60 minutes (GF/60), but ninth in xGF/60. [Canucks](https://www.actionnetwork.com/nhl/odds/vancouver-canucks)Odds [BetRivers](https://www.actionnetwork.com/online-sports-betting/reviews/bet-rivers). - The Vancouver Canucks host the Ottawa Senators in Saturday night NHL action.

The Senators remain in the Northwest as they battled the Seattle Kraken on Thursday evening. For their part, the Canucks would like nothing more than to string ...

Miller earned his brace (23rd) by going end to end and wrist a wicked shot for the winner. Miller (22nd), for the second game in a row, netted a shorthanded goal. The ever-dependable Andrei Kuzmenko (30th) gave the Canucks a 2-1 lead, but some sloppy play on a face-off deep in their own zone allowed Anaheim to level the terms before the second period concluded. But then the poor Senators put their jerseys on, which allowed the Kraken to slink their way back and even take a 4-3 lead in the third period. Said firepower was on full display in the opening frame, as the guests raced out to a 3-0 lead through goals by Shane Pinto (17th), Jakob Chychrun (ninth), and Patrick Brown (third). In this particular instance, the tables have changed greatly since the last time the Sens and Canucks met at centre ice in November.

Andrei Kuzmenko scored twice as the Vancouver Canucks extended their win streak with a 5-2 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Saturday.

The Russian winger skated in, deftly moving the puck from his forehand to his backhand, and popped a shot in past Sogaard to make it 1-0 Guarded by DeBrincat, Miller and Aman sprinted up the ice where Miller sent a pass across the slot to Aman. Ottawa finally got a puck past Demko 13:39 into the final frame when Thomas Chabot's shot hit Aman in front of the Vancouver net and deflected to Giroux.

The penalty kill has been better, their goaltending has been better, their team defence has been better, and as you may have guessed, they’ve been better at keeping the puck out of their net than they have been at any point this season. He tallied a goal and an assist to give the Canucks a 2-0 lead early, and Miller and the Canucks never really took their foot off the gas pedal from there. They seem to have a habit of winning down the stretch after they’ve tanked their season and made playoffs next to impossible to achieve.
