The Ducks are 27th in scoring. So they're not a big scoring team. The spot is sluggish for both teams. The situation and history show Under is the way to go here.
The Ducks just played at the Kings on Saturday scoring one goal for the second straight game. They are now heading out of California for the first time since Oct. 29. The Under is 8-2-1 the past 11 times the Ducks have played on one day's rest. Chicago yields the fourth-fewest goals per game.
The Blackhawks catch a break in that Anaheim will be without its leading scorer, Rickard Rakell. He's out with an upper-body injury. This is Chicago's first home game since Nov. 15. The Blackhawks are flying back from Florida after defeating the Panthers, 4-1, on Saturday. The Under is 6-1-1 the last eight times the Blackhawks have played at home following a road trip of seven or more days. The Ducks rank ninth in fewest goals allowed.
The Under is 12-3-1 during the team's last 16 games in Chicago.
