Our Anaheim Ducks vs Columbus Blue Jackets Prediction
Columbus has lost six of the last seven games and allowed 4+ goals in four of those losses. They haven’t been a good road team this season (7-8-3) while the Ducks have been a solid home squad (11-4). But Anaheim has lost four of its last five games and allowed 21 goals in those losses. So, I don’t trust either team to play well enough to pull out a win, but this will likely be a fairly high-scoring game.
Our Columbus vs. Anaheim Pick: OVER 6.5
