By Rob Gerein | January 29, 2010
The Vancouver Canucks take a six-game winning streak into the Air Canada Centre for a highly anticipated Hockey Day in Canada matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs Saturday night (7:05 pm ET, NHL Network, CBC).
Vancouver is a -160 moneyline favorite and the Maple Leafs are +140 home underdogs in NHL Betting at Sportsbook.com. The over/under is 6.
The Canucks are 6-4 in the past 10 meetings. This is the second meeting of the season. The Canucks won 3-1 when the teams squared off in Vancouver on Oct. 24.
The last time the Canucks were in Toronto was Feb. 21 last season, when they edged the Leafs 3-2.
Toronto dropped its fourth straight game with a 5-3 loss against the visiting Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday. The Maple Leafs faced the New Jersey Devils on the road Friday night.
And Vancouver picked up its sixth-straight win with a 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Blues on Wednesday. Vancouver now plays six straight on the road until the Winter Olympics break, followed by another eight straight away from home after the Olympics.
Vancouver is 33-18-2 this season and Toronto is 17-27-10.
