Ducks vs Sharks Prediction

The Ducks won all three meetings against the Sharks last season, winning their only visit in San Jose with a 2-0 score. They are 7-1 in their last 8 meetings against the Sharks, and 3-1 in their last 4 meetings in San Jose. Over is 3-1 in their last 4 meetings in San Jose.

In this Ducks vs Sharks Prediction, the Ducks are coming as -125 road favorites. Both teams are coming off defeats in their opening games of the season, and one of the two will get its first win tonight. I don’t trust the Sharks with Yaroslav Askarov in net, but it is hard to pick the Ducks as road favorites, so I see no value on either side. Neither offense looked good in their previous games, as they had 1/5 power plays combined, and the Ducks scored just one goal. The Sharks had only 23 total shots, and both teams were very efficient in power play kill, with 75% and 100%. The total is set at 6.5 goals, and I like the under in this spot, as I don’t see 7 goals or more getting scored in this game.
