The Anaheim Ducks are riding high as they return home to Honda Center tonight to face the Chicago Blackhawks. Anaheim won their last four games on the road, which concluded on Sunday with an incredible come from behind victory against the reigning champion Washington Capitals. Chicago limps into Honda Center tonight, losers of their last four, and are just 4-9-2 on the road. The Blackhawks’ firing of Joel Quenneville has not helped matters much. Under their new skipper, Jeremy Colliton, they are 3-8-2. Chicago has struggled in Anaheim, going 12-25-2 in their last 39, and the home team has won 4 of the last 5 meetings. The Blackhawks won the first meeting this year in Chicago so it’s payback time for the Ducks. The Ducks are hot, ride them ’til they’re not.
TONIGHT’S PICK: ANAHEIM DUCKS
