ANA Ducks Win(-110)
Reasoning
The Anaheim Ducks will be hosting the red-hot Buffalo Sabres on Sunday night. The Ducks, who were sitting idle on Saturday, will have the rest advantage in this game as the Sabres were in action on Saturday. The Sabres come into this game riding a four-game winning streak, and they are 9-1-0 in their last 10 games. Both of these teams have many offensive threats, but it is the quality of their defensive play that separates them. The Sabres are the eighth-best defensive team in the league, averaging 2.87 goals against per game, while the Ducks average 3.43 goals against per game, which is fourth-worst in the NHL. In their last four games, the Sabres have only allowed three games in total. They are dialed in defensively right now.
The Ducks are a very good team on home ice, and that is where they do most of their winning. They are 22-10-2 at the Honda Center. They are underdogs in this game and I think there is some value there if they can button things up defensively and get a solid performance from their netminder, Lukas Dostal, who is more than capable of delivering a good game. Give me the Ducks in this one.
