Prop Bets: Vancouver Canucks VS Los Angeles Kings 2025-11-29
Los Angeles Kings vs. Vancouver Canucks: A Bedazzled Bore, With a Side of Props
The Los Angeles Kings (-193 ML) are favored to out-snooze the Vancouver Canucks (+160) on November 29, 2025, in a game so injury-riddled it makes a deflated whoopee cushion look like a party. With the Kings missing Drew Doughty (legitimately injured) and Warren Foegele (mysteriously "day-to-day"), and the Canucks operating as a full-time goaltender-free zone (Thatcher Demko DNP, Kevin Lankinen on a personal journey), this matchup is less "Hockey" and more "Who Can Trip Over Their Own Feet First?"
The Under 6.5 Goals Bet (-110 to +110) is a No-Brainer
Between the Canucks’ defense looking like a Jell-O mold in a earthquake and the Kings’ offense trying to score without their top-line spark plug, this game will be so low-scoring, the only thing lighting up will be the "Boring Alert" on your TV. Vancouver’s expected goals against per 60 minutes? League-worst. The Kings’ save percentage? Solid enough to make a submarine blush (.921 for Filip Gustavsson). Buckle up for a 2-1 final—because someone has to score, right?
Player Props: The Only Thrills You’ll Get
- Kevin Fiala Over 0.5 Goals (+140): Fiala has 12 goals in 17 career games against Vancouver, which is basically his full-season total. With Jiri Patera in net for the Canucks (allowed 7 goals in his lone start), Fiala might as well sign a hat trick on the ice.
- Quinton Byfield Over 0.5 Assists (+125): Byfield has assisted on every one of Fiala’s last three goals. If that’s not a hockey marriage made in heaven, it’s at least a very committed group project.
- Macklin Celebrini Over 0.5 Assists (+105): Celebrini has 18 assists in 19 games. If he doesn’t hit this, the NHL should rename the assist to "The Celebrini."
Why the Kings Win?
Because the Canucks’ roster is missing more players than a Sudoku puzzle missing numbers. Teddy Blueger? Out. Derek Forbort? Out. Even their backup goalie is "out for personal reasons." The Kings, meanwhile, have a functional defense (sort of) and a goaltender who doesn’t look like he’s about to faint.
Final Score Prediction:
Los Angeles Kings 2, Vancouver Canucks 1. The Canucks’ lone goal will be a fluky deflection off a Zamboni technician’s dream.
Place your bets, but maybe also take a nap. This game’s energy is low. 🏒💤
