NHL Picks: Four Canadian Teams Top Busy Thursday Schedule

The NHL schedule for December has 11 games on Thursday night. Four Canadian teams are playing on that night, with two of them competing against each other.

Montreal Canadiens and Calgary Flames are both struggling. The Flames need to win more games to improve their record. Montreal's goalie Jake Allen has allowed 22 goals in his last five starts. Tyler Toffoli leads the team with 16 points in 22 games. The over/under for the game is 2.17. If it goes below 2,10, bettors should look somewhere else.

Florida Panthers are playing Vancouver Canucks tonight. Vancouver has had a disappointing season. Florida is favoured. Spencer Knight will start in goal for Florida. If Sergei Bobrovsky starts for Vancouver, the Canucks are up to 2.66 points. The Over is teetering at 7.0 and around 2,00. The Panthers have a better puck-line.

Watch for line movements tonight in Vancouver for the Canucks game. Minnesota puckline at 2.67, Jonathan Huberdeau anytime goal at2.50, Calgary pucklines at 1.88 and Jacob Markstrom save prop at 30.
