After a forgettable 2024-25 season, the Vancouver Canucks are hoping to return the playoffs in 2025-26 but are not favoured to do so on PlayNow.
On PlayNow, the Canucks are even money underdogs to make the postseason (2.00) and have the fourth-longest odds to win the Pacific Division (14.00), behind powerhouses Vegas (2.45) and Edmonton (2.60), as well as Los Angeles (4.75).
Despite bringing back fan favourite Brock Boeser and Vancouver-born Evander Kane in a trade deal with the Oilers, the odds still don’t favour Vancouver to return to playoff contention. Further muddying their long-term outlook is the future of captain and undisputed team MVP Quinn Hughes, who is slated to be a free agent in 2027. PlayNow has the odds of trading Hughes before the end of this season at 7.00.
For Vancouver to have a fighting chance to make the playoffs, more will be asked of centre Elias Pettersson, whose production cratered from 89 points in 2024 to just 45 in 2025. This year, Pettersson’s over/under on points has been set at 76.5 on PlayNow.
Players can wager on who will have more points this season, Pettersson or his former teammate J.T. Miller, goals and points for every single Canucks regular, and how many 20+ and 30+ goal scorers Vancouver will have this season.
