Let’s take a look at some betting trends for this match-up. Anaheim is 7-1 SU in its last 8 games and 4-1 SU in its last 5 games on the road. Montreal is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games at home, but 1-3-1 SU in its last 5 games ,when playing at home against Anaheim. Montreal is second last in the league in power play chances at 2.8 per game.
A couple of nights ago the Toronto Maple Leafs ended the Anaheim Ducks seven game win streak. Tonight, I believe they start a new streak. Tonight’s game matches one of the best home teams Canadiens (12-3-1 at Home) vs one of the best road teams the Ducks (11-4-2 on Road). Look I think both these teams are great. The only major draw back the Canadiens have is that they are not the same team on the road as they’re at home. That’s a different story for the Ducks. No matter where they play the Ducks always bring a challenge. A couple of things to note as why the Ducks are the play tonight. As the trend showed the Canadiens have struggled against the Ducks at HOME the last couple of seasons. The Ducks even with the loss a couple of nights ago are still one of, if not the hottest team in the NHL. Last but not least we see evidence that “sharp” may very well be on the Ducks tonight. 54% of all Off-Shore bettors are siding with the Canadiens tonight. Yet the Ducks line has moved from 2.18 to 2.07. I believe we’re getting GREAT value with the road team tonight considering how hot they’ve been. Best of Luck!!!
