Vancouver vs Philadelphia Prediction 10 November 2026
๐ Vancouver and Philadelphia sit at the bottom of their respective conferences. Between them, the teams have won just seven games, and recent weeks have brought mostly disappointment. The Canucks have lost five straight, while the Flyers still cannot hold on to a lead. Last night, Rick Tocchetโs team went ahead three times against Calgary but still lost. Now the Flyers have another game in Canada. They beat Vancouver twice last season, and both games were high-scoring. There is reason to expect something similar this time.
Nine goals in the last meeting
๐ Last season, the Philadelphia Flyers won both games against the Vancouver Canucks. The first meeting took place on December 22 and ended 5:2 in the Flyersโ favor. Eight days later, the teams played in Canada, but the change of venue did not help the Canucks. The visitors scored more than five goals again and won 6:3. That gave the Flyers 11 goals across the two games, while Vancouver scored just five.
Head-to-head statistics Vancouver - Philadelphia
The defence lets them down again
19 games, three wins and just seven points. Vancouver are firmly rooted to the bottom of the Western Conference, with little reason for optimism so far. The Canucks have won only once in their last 16 games. The biggest problem for Manny Malhotraโs team is the number of goals they allow. Opponents score an average of 4.6 goals per game against them, and Vancouver have allowed at least four in nine of their last ten games. Even when the forwards create chances, they rarely manage to make up for mistakes in defence. Demko, Thomas and Chytil are also injured, while Willanderโs availability remains in doubt.
The Canucks held on for two periods in Edmonton. Max Sasson tied the game nine seconds before the first intermission, and the score was still 1:1 at the start of the third period. But just 49 seconds after play resumed, Jason Dickinson put the home team ahead. Leon Draisaitl soon scored on the power play and later added an empty-net goal. Brock Boeser pulled one back, but Vancouver could not avoid a 2:4 defeat. Leevi Merilรคinen made 26 saves. It was Vancouverโs fifth straight loss.

Led three times but still lost
Philadelphia are also at the bottom of the standings, but in the Eastern Conference. After 19 games, Rick Tocchetโs team have four wins and 12 points. The Flyers briefly picked up in the second half of October, winning three straight games, but then fell away again. They have lost five of their last six. Their problems without the puck have been especially noticeable: opponents have scored at least three goals against them in every game over that stretch. The game against the Rangers was one example - Philadelphia led after two periods but lost 2:3. The injured Grebenkin and Ristolainen are also unavailable.
The same thing happened overnight against Calgary, only more painfully. The Flyers took the lead three times through goals from Denver Barkey, Noel Acciari and Owen Tippett. Tippett scored on the power play in the second period, sending the visitors into intermission up 3:2. But Philadelphia conceded while on the power play in the third: Joel Farabee broke away alone and tied the game. Matt Coronato won it for Calgary in overtime (4:3). The Flyers outshot their opponents 34:26, but Dan Vladar stopped only 22 of 26 shots. Another game in which their lead was not enough to earn even two points.

โญ๏ธ Editor's Pick
When the two worst teams in their respective conferences meet, picking a favourite is no easy task. The goal total is much easier to assess. The Vancouver Canucks allow an average of 4.6 goals per game, and the total has gone over 5.5 in each of their last four games. The Philadelphia Flyers are struggling defensively too: they have allowed at least three goals in six straight games. At least six goals have been scored in four of the Flyersโ last five games. Add last yearโs head-to-head games to the picture. Both teams regularly make mistakes in their own end, so there is little reason to expect a low-scoring game. My pick is total over 5.5 goals.
