Capitals vs. Ducks Odds & Betting Predictions - March 12, 2025

Sura

This matchup features two of the best goalies of the 2024-25 NHL season going head-to-head: Logan Thompson vs Lukas Dostal Other than Connor Hellbuyck, no goalie has more Goals Saved Above Expected at even strength than Thompson and Dostal. Logan Thompson has 25 goals saved above expected this season while Dostal has 22. Both have save percentages above .920 at even strength this season. The Ducks have been scoring above average in March, but face a much tougher opponent in WAS than their last three of NYI, STL, and VAN. ANA has an even strength shooting % of 15 in the month of March, which is 2nd best in the league. I expect offensive regression from ANA against Thompson and a physical WAS defensive unit. It's hard to have confidence in ANA's defense, but they have held three of their last four opponents to fewer than 3 goals. Lukas Dostal can take credit for a bulk of those performances. Lastly, Ducks have the second best under record at home (19-11-1) and the Capitals have the seventh best under record on the road (15-12-3).
