Month: November 2019

Anaheim Duck fans should be in rare form tonight when the Chicago Blackhawks pay a visit to Honda Center. Anaheim will be celebrating the team’s 2000th game in franchise history and captain Ryan Getzlaf will be playing in his 1000th game, all with the Ducks. The Blackhawks have lost 6 out of 7, are winless on the road at 0-3-1, and will be playing back-to-back games after losing to the Los Angeles Kings last night in OT, 4-3. The Ducks have been clicking, winning 2 straight, 3 out of their last 4, and are a force at home with a record of 6-1-0. The Pond will be electric tonight and it’s payback time for Anaheim after losing 2 of 3 meetings with Chicago last year.
TONIGHT’S PICK: ANAHEIM DUCKS

The Nashville Predators are still licking their wounds after blowing a 4-1 lead at home to the Calgary Flames on Halloween night. Today they will have a chance to redeem themselves when they host the New York Rangers in a matinee at Bridgestone Arena. New York has been inconsistent out of the gate. They sit in the 7th spot in the Metropolitan division at 4-5-1 and are just 1-2-0 on the road. The Predators are second in the Central division at 8-3-2 and are a force at home with a record of 6-1-2. Nashville is the superior team by far between these two clubs and the only way they lose this game is if they beat themselves. 
TODAY’S PICK: NASHVILLE PREDATORS

The Anaheim Ducks own an impressive 5-1-0 record at Honda Center and that’s where they will be tonight when they host the Vancouver Canucks. Vancouver has been red hot, going 8-1-1 in their last 10 games, but have struggled against Anaheim in the past. The Ducks have won 7 of the last 10 meetings and 4 straight against the Canucks at the Pond. Anaheim could get a boost to their lineup tonight with the possible return of Hampus Lindholm, who leads the team with 9 assists.
