Oddsmakers don't give the Mighty Ducks much of a chance Thursday, opening them as 170 underdogs when they visit Buffalo at HSBC Arena.
Anaheim brings a 12-12-4 overall mark (4-4-2 in the division) into this game versus a Buffalo team carrying a 17-10-1 record.
The Sabres are favored, opening as 170 chalk, with an opening total of 6. They are 17-10-1 this season and 10-17-1 OU. The Mighty Ducks are 12-12-4 and are 9-18-1 OU.
Randy Carlyle's team hopes to rebound from a 6-2 loss at the hands of Hurricanes. They were 135 favorites in a game that went over the total.
Lindy Ruff's troops were at Colorado against the Avalanche last game and came away with a 6-4 win, a game that went over 6.5. Oddsmakers had them as 200 money line underdogs in that one.
Some trends to consider:
Anaheim is 1-8-0 OU in its last 9 away
Anaheim is 2-7-0 OU in its last 9 games
Anaheim is 2-5-2 OU in its last 9 games against Buffalo
Anaheim is 2-6-0 SU in its last 8 games after scoring 1 to 2 goals
