Oddsmakers from online sports book Bodog.com have made the Sharks –110 money line favorites over the Ducks, who are +102 on the ML. The puck will drop at 10:00PM ET tonight.
The Sharks come into Wednesday night’s contest with a 47-23-4-5 record overall and a 23-12-2-2 mark on the road. According to latest NHL trends, the over is 40-35 in all San Jose games this year and 19-18 when the Sharks have played on the road.
The Ducks head into tonight with a 44-30-3-2 overall record and are 24-13-1-1 at the Honda Center this year. The under is 39-38 in all Anaheim games this year and 19-18 when the Ducks have played at home.
NHL Free Pick: The Sharks have had the Ducks’ number this season, edging Anaheim in three of the five games that these two clubs have played. (The Ducks won one game and the teams tied in the other matchup.) Devin Setoguchi and Dan Boyle have paced San Jose against Anaheim this year, racking up seven points apiece. The Sharks are 8-3 in their last 11 games against the Ducks and are 6-1 in their last seven games after scoring five goals or more in their previous contest. At –110 on the money line, the Sharks offer a nice value in what should be a tightly contested contest.
