Anaheim has plenty of talent on offense, a team that made a deep playoff run last season. They seem to have turned a corner finally, on a 2-1 run with wins over Florida (3-1) and the last game, a 5-3 victory over Calgary last night. The Ducks are 38-14 after scoring five goals or more in their previous game, plus 23-10 playing on no days of rest. They face an Arizona team with a losing home record and a bad defense at #24 in goals allowed. The Coyotes are 21-45 against the Western Conference and on a 15-39 run at home. Anaheim is 4-1 at Arizona as the road team is a perfect 4-0 in the last four meetings. Back Anaheim.
