Anaheim Ducks vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction & Picks - NHL

Prediction published on 2/22/25, 10:18 PM  by Edgar Jibran | Modified on 2/23/25 at 5:20 AM in NHL Picks

The NHL Eastern Conference is bringing a great spectacle on the mid-section of the standings, as there are many teams trying to ensure their qualification for the playoffs by the end of the regular season. One of those teams are the Detroit Red Wings, which next Sunday will face Anaheim Ducks at 05:00 pm CST with a huge obligation of winning to avoid losing their playoff spot against teams like Columbus Blue Jackets and Boston Bruins.

In this regard, it’s necessary to mention that the Red Wings have a streak of 2 losses in a row, and 4 games in a row without winning in regulation time. This streak cannot be taken as a big surprise since they currently are the fourth worst defensive in the Atlantic Division, instead it shows the reality about the irregularity of this team as well as the big pressure of winning this game.

Meanwhile, Anaheim Ducks have managed to keep alive in the competition after winning their last 4 games in a row, a huge effort that reduced the gap between them and the Western Conference playoffs’ mark down to 7 points. However, even when they were able to show an amazing defensive level during that positive streak, they still remain as the worst offensive line of their Conference with just 140 goals scored throughout the season.
