This Could Be a High-Scoring Contest

The Ducks go up against the Penguins and we’re expecting the teams to surpass 6 goals. Our betting prediction is to back the Over selection at -115.

Anaheim Ducks won their previous game 3-1. This was a road victory at UBS Arena against New York Islanders. Leo Carlsson, Troy Terry and Frank Vatrano scored one goal apiece. Goalie Lukas Dostal had an awesome game, keeping out 40 shots (.976).
