The current betting odds have the Ducks listed as a big underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Ducks have looked great in their games this season with their 9-3-1 record overall which has them right at the top of their division in the West. They have been a good road team too with their 5-2-1 road record this season. Meanwhile, the Golden Knights have looked good in their games this season with their 7-3-3 record overall which has them right near the top of their division in the West. They have looked good on home ice too with their 4-2-1 home record this year. The Golden Knights are 6-3-1 in their last 10 games and have looked a lot better after a slow start to the season, but they are off a 6-3 loss at home to the Lightning in their last one. They haven't been scoring a lot of goals lately either and have been really up and down in their last few games. The Ducks are 7-2-1 in their last 10 games and they have been rolling lately, coming off another upset win over the Stars 7-5 in their last one. They have one of the best offenses in the NHL right now with the way they have been putting pucks in the net and they continue to find ways to beat good teams in the league. The Ducks have looked a lot better than the Golden Knights have looked lately and this is too much value for a Ducks team that keeps getting the job done. The best way to place a bet here is on the Ducks to win this game or on the puckline.

“It was a crazy game. We talked about their power play and how lethal it was, and we saw firsthand that it really is lethal. We still took some careless penalties and our start again, those two things were not great. But certainly some production across the board, timely goals, getting the power play going and a couple of nice plays as we went along in the game. Second period, we had the puck a lot and did some good things with it, some dangerous shifts that didn’t produce, but at the same time, we had good offensive-zone time and good momentum going into that third.” - Joel Quenneville after his team’s win against the Stars in their game on Thursday.

“He's around the net. He was near the front of the net, tracked down a rebound, another backhand. So, you're scoring on backhands, it means you're around the right place, because those aren't usually going to beat a goalie when he's set. The other one was driving the middle, right? It was a good play.” - Bruce Cassidy after his team’s loss against the Lightning in their game on Thursday.
