Columbus at Anaheim

Premium Pick

Went against Columbus yesterday and will do so again today. This team is horrific on the road, now just 8-24 on the season after yesterday's loss. Over the past decade, they are 6-42 on the road vs. teams that score 2.85+ goals per game (the Ducks average 3.2 per game at home). Anaheim's offense has fallen off of late but a sign of a good team is when their defense picks up the slack in that situation. Anaheim has done just that, allowing just 1.8 goals per game over their last five games. Road teams off 2 straight close losses that close poorly (outscored by opp by 0.2+ goals/game in third period) are 4-29 (12%) since 1996 in the second half of the season. Three stars on Anaheim to crush the Jackets.

3 units on Anaheim -226 (moneyline) (risk 3 to return 4.33)
