Anaheim at Vancouver

The Anaheim Ducks were one of the hottest teams in the NHL prior to the break, winning five straight games and out-scoring their opponents by a 23-10 count. That mojo unfortunately will likely be lost as they head to Vancouver to take on the Canucks. Vancouver closed the first half of the season with five straight road games and have not taken the ice at home in 17 days, so there should be a special feel to this one tonight, and I think they get an extra burst. The Canucks have shown that to be the case in the past as they are 22-8 at home when following a road trip of seven days or more, and have elevated their play vs. a team with a road winning percentage of .600 or greater, turning in a 38-17-2 mark in their last 57 against them. Vancouver takes this one.
