anaheim ducks vs. colorado avalanche\u00a0Pick<\/p>\n

Less than two weeks ago, this game screamed an easy Colorado win. Anaheim was in the midst of a nine-game skid, allowing 4+ goals in all but one of those losses. But, the Ducks flipped the momentum to string together four wins, featuring back-to-back wins over the LA Kings in extra time. Now, that momentum faces a massive roadblock; the best offense<\/a> in the NHL.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Colorado is recording 4.04 goals per game, snapping the most shots in the league<\/a> (34.7), having the second-most powerplay chances (3.45) while killing nearly 85% of penalties (ranked 1st). And although the Ducks are also a top-10 offense (3.33), their defense<\/a> will make them vulnerable tonight. Anaheim is giving up 3.57 goals, the second-worst mark in the NHL, and aren’t the strongest shorthanded (77.5PK%).\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Avalanche are dominating, leading the league by 10-points, and are specifically unstoppable at home, winning 20 of their 24 games in Denver.\u00a0Nathan MacKinnon is having himself a season with 38 goals, currently the Hart<\/a> and Rocket Richard Trophy<\/a> favorite, Cale Makar is driving offense from the blue line with 40 assists and Artturi Lehkonen adds depth by piling up shots (116).<\/p>\n

Anaheim has dropped eight of its last nine trips to Colorado. The Ducks road record isn’t doing them any favors, going 4-12 in their last 16 away games. Despite the recent surge for the Ducks, this meeting with the NHL’s toughest team is just poor timing. With Colorado’s last six wins being by 2+ goals, I’ll take the puckline.\u00a0<\/p>\n
