The NHL Power play is on Anaheim. Game 65 at 7:05 eastern. We have cashed 3 straight with the Ducks and we will ride them once again as they have won 7 of 9 here in Edmonton and are 3-0 when leading in a series which is something they will be doing for the first time in this round. Visiting teams up 3-2 in a series in round 2 are a solid Return on investment long term if the visiting teams won the first 4 games followed by a host team win in game 5. The Ducks were dead in the water in game 5 down 3-0 with 3 minutes and change left in the game and miraculously tied the game up before winning in double overtime. How big a deal is that?

In the history of best-of-7 NHL playoff games from 1939 through 2016, home teams trailing by three goals as late as 16:43 into the third period had a game record of 0-212 (.000), home teams trailing by two goals as late as 17:18 into the third had a game record of 4-359 (.011), and home teams trailing by one goal as late as 19:44 into the third had a game record of 9-416 (.021). That right thee is the biggest reason to like the Ducks, they may have broken the psyche of Edmonton. Look for Anaheim to give Edmonton an Oil Change.
