The Vancouver Canucks hit the road this evening to take on the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center, with puck drop scheduled for 8:30 p.m. ET.

Jake DeBrusk has created tons of chances against Chicago this season, and I’m eyeing him to do so again in my Canucks vs. Blackhawks predictions.

Canucks vs Blackhawks prediction

Canucks vs Blackhawks best bet: Jake DeBrusk Over 2.5 shots (+105)

Jake DeBrusk is averaging 2.68 SOG this season for the Vancouver Canucks, and while that number dips to 2.33 in road games, there’s a serious reason to believe he’ll be busy offensively tonight.

Across two meetings with the Chicago Blackhawks in 2025-26, DeBrusk has put an absurd amount of pucks on net. We’re talking 14 shots on target. The Blackhawks are also poor defensively, allowing 29.4 SOG per game. 

Canucks vs Blackhawks same-game parlay

Drew O’Connor is averaging just 1.45 SOG per contest this season, but he’s hit the Over in two of his last three contests.

O’Connor has also cashed the Over on his shots prop in one of the two meetings with Chicago this season.

Despite trading Conor Garland on Thursday, I’m eyeing them to end their seven-game losing skid tonight. Vancouver is 1-1 against the Hawks in ‘25-26, and that lone win came on the road.

In fact, the Canucks are 9-1-0 across their last 10 meetings with Chicago.
