Pick 180: Chicago- Anaheim

Chicago faces Anaheim in a match they should easily win. Anaheim is coming of two straight defeats at home against Phoenix and Dallas and Chicago is coming of a OT loss to the Avs.
Statistically Chicago dominates all relevant aspects to today's match. They are out-shooting their opponents 33.3-27.6. Anaheim is out-shot 27.9-28.3. Goals for and goal against averages are also in Chicago's favor. Chicago scores 3.43 (2nd in the league) and concedes 2.29. Anaheim score 2.14 and receive 2.43. Anaheim's road penalty kill has received 3 goals on 10 kills, while Chicago have 3 goals on 16 power-play attempts on home ice.
This match marks the first of Ducks' 7 away matches to follow and a lot of questions regarding the strength and depth of this team will be answered. Against Chicago though they will be outmatched in every position and i expect a clear Chicago victory.

Pick: Chicago @2.00 (Bet365)
Stake: 75

Result: LOST
