NHL Playoffs Odds: Ducks at Red Wings

The Detroit Red Wings and Anaheim Ducks have pushed their Western Conference semifinal series to the limit just as Edmonton and Calgary did in 1991 and Montreal and Boston did in 1971 in the last two matchups of previous Stanley Cup winners.

The second-seeded Red Wings will face the eighth-seeded Ducks tonight at home, hoping to follow a trend. Not including Pittsburgh's win on Wednesday night, the home teams have won 63 percent of Game 7s since 1939.

This postseason, the Ducks have proven they can win anywhere and their confidence has grown. Anaheim won Game 2 at Joe Louis Arena in triple overtime and opened the playoffs with two road wins against the top-seeded San Jose Sharks.

Pavel Datsyuk is goaless in his last eight games and has just two assists against Anaheim. The winner will advance to play the Chicago Blackhawks in the Western Conference final. Get all your NHL playoffs odds in the Bodog Sportsbook.
