In "The Night Ahead" we take a look at a selection (well, five) of the upcoming games for the evening (early hours here in the UK) and add a preview and opinion on the match ups.
Just the one, that's right, one game in the NHL tonight.
ANAHEIM DUCKS @ DALLAS STARS
Dallas go into tonight's sole NHL fixture 6-3-1 in their last ten but find themselves bottom of the uber competitive Central Division on 24 points after Winnipeg won in New Jersey last night. Anaheim find themselves in quite the opposite situation, sitting atop the Pacific Division, joint for 2nd best in the league with St Louis on 37 points.
Dallas have been heavy reliant on the play of Benn, Seguin and whoever lines up with them, not to mention the excellence of Kari Lehtonen. Whilst the Ducks form is down to the usual suspects, Getzlaf, Perry and free agent pick up Dustin Penner.
The Stars are on a two game skid and the Ducks have own two in a row after a five game losing streak.
I'm picking the Ducks in this game.
Tonight's pick: Anaheim.
