Tonight, the Toronto Maple Leafs will look to make it four in a row when they head to Vancouver for a showdown with the Canucks in what will be their final game before the start of the 4 Nations Face-Off Tournament.
After picking up wins over the Oilers, Flames,and most recently the Kraken, the team will be looking to head into the break with another win.
The Vancouver Canucks are in the midst of a two-game win streak that has seen them pick up wins over the Colorado Avalanche and more recently the San Jose Sharks.
While Toronto has positioned itself to punch its ticket to the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Canucks are looking to fend off the Calgary Flames, who sit just behind them in the Western Conference playoff race.

Heading into tonight's game between the Maple Leafs and the Canucks, Toronto is sitting as a very slight betting favorite, which shouldn't come as a surprise given how well it has played this season.
On FanDuel, Toronto is a -140 favorite, while Vancouver is a +116 underdog. Meanwhile, over on BallyBet, these odds are even closer, with Toronto sitting on -115 odds and Vancouver sitting on -105 odds.
Based on the current lines, it would take a $140 bet on Toronto as the favorites to win $100 on FanDuel, while a $100 bet on Vancouver as the underdog would turn a $116 profit.
Following tonight's game, and the 4 Nations Face-Off Tournament, Toronto will be back in action on Feb. 22 when it collides with the Carolina Hurricanes in the first leg of a back-to-back that will then see the team face off with the Blackhawks on Feb. 23.
