Utah Hockey Club at Ducks picks and predictions

forecast

Utah Hockey Club 4, Ducks 3

Money line

The UTAH HOCKEY CLUB (-135) is a solid game away from home as they look to bounce back from their first loss of the season.

The Ducks (+115) have had solid defense and goaltending in their two games so far, but the offense has only managed to light the lamp three times, including 1 no-goal from C Trevor Zegras. The Anaheim offense's struggles will be the reason Utah makes it, even though it may be the Ducks' first time playing in front of their home crowd in terms of scoring.

Puck Line/Against the Spread

If you need a little insurance, Ducks +1.5 (-225) is just too expensive. You can't risk more than double your potential winnings, especially with an outsider at the puck line when a late goal into an empty net can result in a loss after being on the right side most of the evening.

HAPPENand just focus on the money line instead.

Over/Under

ABOUT 6 (-120) is a risky play as the Ducks are averaging 1.5 GPG on offense while allowing 1.5 GPG. However, the over is Utah 3-1 through 4 games, with 5 or more points scored in 3 of those games. Three or more goals have been allowed in three out of four competitions so far.
