Prediction

Kings 3, Ducks 2

Moneyline (ML)

The Ducks and Kings hold the bottom two spots in the Pacific Division. The Kings have been playing their best hockey of the year of late, going 6-3-1 across their last 10 games including a 2-1 home win over the Winnipeg Jets Saturday. The Ducks have dropped two straight and were shutout 3-0 by those same Jets at home Friday.

The KINGS (+120) are just 2-9-1 on the road while being a respectable 9-5-1 on home ice. The Ducks (-143) are 7-5-2 at home but just 2-5-3 over their last 10 games overall. Take the value with the visitors as the two teams continue heading in opposite directions.

New to sports betting? A $10 bet on the Kings to win outright in regulation, overtime or a shootout returns a profit of $12.

Puck Line/Against the Spread (ATS)

The moneyline is the more profitable play at plus-money, but the KINGS (+1.5, -238) can also be taken on the spread with one goal of insurance in the event of a loss. The Kings are 12-15 against the spread overall and 4-8 on the road, but the Ducks are just 5-9 ATS at home (13-14 overall).

The Ducks’ last two wins were each decided by three goals, but they went just 2-5 straight up in that time. I like LA to come away with the victory, but the spread helps protect against this game going to overtime or a shootout.

Over/Under (O/U)

Take the UNDER 5.5 (-120). The Kings went 2-7-1 against the projected goal totals across their last 10 games while the Ducks were 7-3 in favor of the Over. Quick has been playing better of late following an awful start to the year and keeps this one short of the number.
