Anaheim at Columbus

The Anaheim Ducks have outplayed the Columbus Blue Jackets this season, and have accumulated seven more standing points at this stage of the season. Columbus is also dealing with several injuries, and they are not getting it done on the backside of the ice or in front of the net. Columbus is just 1-5 in their last six games where they have allowed 27 goals or 4.5 per contest. Anaheim should take advantage of this situation as their offense has been crisp over their last five games where the tally has been just shy of four goals per contest. I think Anaheim has been the better team overall and their offensive surge vs. the lagging Columbus D positions the Ducks well in this one. Make the play on Anaheim.
