Ricky's 7* play on VAN.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The Canucks are 12-4 SU in their last 16 games.

- The Canucks are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games at home.

- Thatcher Demko is 3-1 in his last 4 starts for the Canucks.

Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.
