Both teams have not been in their best form lately, as the Ducks are 1-2 in their last 3 games and the Kings 1-3 in their last 4. LA’s offense has been struggling lately, as they have scored two goals or less in four of their last five games, while the Ducks have scored 4 goals in three of their last four. I like the Ducks as small home dogs in this spot, so take them on the moneyline for plus money today.
