The home team has won 6 of the last 7 games in this series and the Ducks have won 5 of their last 6 conference games. The Sharks are just 3-8 in their last 11 games as a favorite. My pick goes with the Ducks. Somehow they are the dogs at home despite having a 17-7-1 record at home and more total points than the Sharks. Anaheim is on a roll right now and I like them to get the win.
