The NHL brings more action today as the Pittsburgh Penguins will face the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. The Penguins are heading into this game after a 5-1 home win over the Panthers. On the other side, the Ducks are off a 2-1 OT loss to the Senators at home.
Pittsburgh Penguins Form
The Penguins are heading into this game after a dominant 5-1 home win against the Panthers. Moreover, they were on a very good run as they won 8 games in a row. However, the Penguins were shocked by the Blackhawks in their previous game. The Penguins are currently in 2nd place in the Metro and just two points out of first. Therefore, they need to maintain the momentum and beat the Ducks in this game.
Their away record stands at 11-9.
And their offensive average away stands at 3.45 goals per game.
Their away defensive record stands at 2.45 goals per game.
Anaheim Ducks Form
The Ducks are heading into this game after being surprised by a poor Senators team. Moreover, the Ducks lost at home in overtime with a score of 2-1.
It seems that their offense is really poor this season. Anaheim has now scored a total of 12 goals in their last nine games. Therefore, their offence is their main problem regarding their form.
The Ducks have a home record of 10-14.
On the offensive side, they have been poor this year as they have averaged 2.46 goals per game
Also, their defensive average stands at 2.83 goals per home game.
Prediction
The Penguins have been playing well lately. Also, their surprising defeat at the hands of the Blackhawks was just a bad day for them. On the other side, the Ducks are a poor team. Moreover, their offence is really bad lately. Therefore, I expect an easy and dominant win for the Penguins in this one.
