Command Analysis
Anaheim Ducks
USACurrent form
Anaheim did not start the home series in the best way, having suffered a crushing defeat from the clear favorite in the person of Carolina. The team played on opposite courses and could have been successful if it hadn't been for a weak defensive game and low shooting accuracy, which together led to a loss of points (2:5). The goalkeeper did his best, but he deflected only 88% of the shots. But in the next match, the Ducks completely rehabilitated themselves in front of the fans, leaving no chance for Boston (6:2). The entire attacking line showed a great game, it's difficult to even single out any of the players, as many distinguished themselves with effective actions.
As expected, the team was able to consolidate its success in the duel with the Rangers. The defensive line didn't play reliably enough, which caused problems. It was going to be a loss in regular time, but just six minutes before the final whistle, they managed to score two goals and equalize the score, and then snatch Victoria in overtime (5:4). The most productive was striker Karlsson, who scored a goal and provided three assists. Indeed, the club has been in good shape lately, but the gap from the playoff zone is still too big and amounts to 15 points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Magin and Sushanek will definitely not be able to play in the upcoming match. Johnston and Trumpet also remain in question.

Toronto Maple Leafs
CanadaCurrent form
Recently, Toronto has been showing unstable results, alternating wins with losses. The team played away to Nashville, where they unexpectedly suffered a defeat with a score of 2:5. The defensive line showed its worst side, as well as goalkeeper Wall, who reflected only 87% of shots. But by returning to their home arena, the Maple Leafs left no chance for Philadelphia, gaining the upper hand with a five-goal difference (7:2). Nylander and Tavares played a great game, scoring four points each. It seemed that such a confident Victoria would help the club regain its former form, but in the next match with San Jose, they had to concede again (5:6B).
Continuing their away streak, the Leafs faced off against a rival of their level in the face of Los Angeles and finally played reliably defensively, preventing the Kings from realizing their attacking potential and winning a landslide victory (3:1). Once again, Tavares proved himself by scoring a double. Despite the lost points, the club continues to remain on the third line in the Eastern Conference table, with 92 points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hakanpaa and Pacioretty will definitely not be able to participate in the upcoming match.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Toronto scores 3.3 goals per game.

1.50Tip and bets
Given Toronto's unstable game, Anaheim has a good opportunity to try to grab points in the upcoming match. The Ducks will perform at their home arena, where, with the support of the fans, they are showing their best and have recently been coping with almost all competitors. However, betting on the ducks' victory is quite dangerous, so we suggest choosing a double chance.
Our betting tip is that Anaheim will not lose in 1.84
Bet on the total
The upcoming match promises to be productive. Anaheim cannot boast of a reliable defensive game and is trying to compensate for this disadvantage through active actions in attack. Toronto, in turn, is also not used to holing up on the defensive, which means that we choose total more as the second bet.
Betting Tip - total more than 5.5 goals in 1.65
Betting on the outcome of the first period
Still, the power of Toronto should not be underestimated. The Leafs are superior to their competitor in all respects and due to this they will try to create serious pressure on Dax from the first minutes of the match. We believe that this will allow the Maple Leafs to take advantage at the end of the opening stretch.
Prediction - Toronto wins in the first period with a handicap (0) in 1.64
