No surprise that when these teams last met the Sharks won, 2-1, in a shootout. That was 16 days ago. These are two low-scoring teams with excellent goalies. San Jose is last in the NHL in goals with 44. The Sharks, though, have given up only six goals in their last four games.

The Ducks are minus several top offensive players, including Ryan Getzlaf and Ryan Kesler.

Anaheim John Gibson is playing very well and San Jose goalie Martin Jones has a 1.33 GAA and a .944 save percentage in six career games versus the Ducks.

The Under is 5-0-1 the past six times the teams have played in San Jose.
