I don’t want to back the Chicago Blackhawks, especially on the road, as much as the next guy, but we’re getting even money with them to fade a Ducks team that’s lost seven straight games. The Anaheim Ducks shouldn’t be favorites regardless of opponent given their current form. Two teams going nowhere fast, but give me the Blackhawks and the more favorable price if forced to pick.
