Numbers for Nerds
The Vegas Golden Knights are last in the league when it comes to Power Play percentage at 5%. This is part of the reason they sit in 28th place at 2.0 goals per 60. Couple this with the fact that the Ducks are 2nd in the league with 2.0 goals against per 60, and the Ducks stand a good chance of getting the W tonight.
The Ducks are also undefeated when their Captain is on the ice. With his return, the Ducks will be able to spread their offensive more evenly across their lineup.
