Anaheim at Chicago

Anaheim is on a sizzling 7-2-1 run, with the sixth ranked defense in the NHL, plus tops in penalty killing. The Ducks are 25-11 in their last 36 Saturday games, plus 9-4 when playing on one day of rest. They are on a 14-4-2 run against the Western Conference. They face a Chicago team that has lost two in a row and five of nine. Chicago's Artemi Panarin has missed the last two games with an illness and is second on the team with 52 points, leading all rookies. The Ducks have plenty of incentive against a Blackhawks team that knocked them out of last season's playoffs and has won this season's first two meetings in overtime. Look for another close one and grab the talented dog. Play Anaheim.
