*8* play on OVER Kings/Ducks.

The Anaheim Ducks have won seven straight overall, and six straight at the
Duck Pond. Their last home loss came against the L.A. Kings by a score of
3-2 back in mid January. The Kings have won four straight, and they've
surrendered just three goals in those games. We see an extremely low total
in this game, and we should expect both teams to put a few pucks in the
net.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Ducks have won four of the last five meeting in
this series, and these two teams have failed to score a combined five goals
just once in the last eight meetings. The over is 4-0-2 in the Kings last
six trips to the Duck Pond.

2. Special Teams - The Kings have one of the more potent power-play units
in the league, converting on 22 percent of their chances. The Ducks are not
far behind, ranking 8th overall in the league with a 21.1 percent
conversion rate. Anaheim is 10-for-24 (41.7 percent) on the man-advantage
over their last seven games.

3. X-Factor - The Ducks are an NHL best 14-1-1 in their last 16 games, and
they've averaged 3.81 goals per game during that span.

Selection: This is a play on the Kings@Ducks to go OVER the total (8*)
