Tonight's Canucks vs. Penguins predictions have Quinn Hughes' shots on goal prop in mind.
Quinn Hughes has been one of the most consistent shooters in the NHL, and not only among defensemen. He routinely clears 2.5 shots on goal and that's where we're going as the Canucks face the flimsy Penguins defense.
Hughes has put up some big shot numbers in recent smash spots, including nine combined shots on 21 attempts against the two New York teams. TheThe Penguins rank 29th in 5v5 shot suppression on the year and play at the league’s second-fastest pace. Hughes has recorded 51 more shot attempts than the closest Canuck during 5v5 play so it stands to reason he’ll be the biggest beneficiary.
This line has moved towards the Penguins since opening, with Canucks backers now available to trade at a -114 price tag. This is likely a byproduct of the Canucks playing in a back-to-back situation with third-string netminder Arthurs Silovs set to get the nod in goal.
