The Minnesota Wild host the Anaheim Ducks at the Xcel Energy Center on Saturday February 16th, 2018. On the NHL betting board the Wild hold the favorite role listed at -127 with the O/U line at 5.5.
Thursday’s 3-2 victory against Chicago as a -116 road favorite was Anaheim’s third win in its last eight games and the total has stayed UNDER in its previous four outings. This lack of consistency has the Ducks holding on to the fourth spot in the Pacific Division standings with 67 total points. One issue has been an offensive effort that is 23rd in the league in scoring with 2.7 goals per game. Anaheim has scored a total of nine goals in its last four games.
