Oilers vs Ducks Prediction
I’m backing the Ducks here. I think there’s just a lot of value to be had here as the Ducks had been playing some solid hockey on the road as of late in their most recent road trip. They’ve been really competitive in a lot of those games. The Oilers have had a bumpy run of form as of late. While we know the talent level that is capable of showing up for Edmonton this season, I think the Ducks are just getting too much plus money to pass on here. Give me Anaheim in this one.
