NHL Rangers vs Ducks Picks and Odds | March 28, 2025

We headed to the West Coast for Rangers vs Ducks picks. The New York Rangers are taking on the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center. These 2 teams haven’t met since October and they Rangers won that game 2-1.

New York is 34-32-6 this season and 5th in the Metro Division. They come into this game off a loss to the Kings on Tuesday night. The Rangers are 3-6-1 in their last 10 games and 17-15-3 on the road this year.

It’s been a bit of a surprise to see the struggles in New York. Their offense ranks mediocre in the league, ranking 17th in goals scored and 15th in shots on goal per game. On the power play, they rank 26th, with a 18% conversion rate. This offense should be a powerhouse with the lineup they have.

Things aren’t much better on the other side of the ice. New York ranks 18th in goals allowed and 28th in shots on goal per game. That is 5th worst in the league for shots allowed. This team commits over 4 penalties per game but have the 7th best penalty kill in the league.

Goalie Igor Shesterkin is expected to start. He is 24-26-4 this year with a 2.80 GAA and a .908 save percentage. Shesterkin isn’t having the best season, but he does have 5 shutouts this season.

Ducks try to make it 2 in a row in front of the home crowd

Anaheim is 31-32-8 so far this year and are 6th in the Pacific Division. They come into this game off a win over the Bruins on Wednesday night. They’re 4-5-1 in their last 10 games and are 17-16-2 at home this season.

This team lacks offense badly. They rank 28th in the league for goals scored and 20th in shots on goal per game. Anaheim as a terrible shooting percentage and practically no power play, ranking 2nd worst in the league.

On defense, there’s not much improvement. They rank 21st in the league for goals allowed and are the worst in the league for shots on goal allowed per game. To go along with their terrible power play, the Ducks rank 2nd worst for penalty kill. They commit over 4 penalties per game, so they really need to step it up on the pk.

Goalie John Gibson is expected to get the start. He is 11-10-2 this season with a 2.72 GAA and a .912 save percentage. He hasn’t faced the Rangers, so should be interesting. Let’s check out the odds and get into the picks.

The Rangers have way more to play for right now. They sit right outside the 2nd Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference, so every game is getting more and more important. A game like this should be a layup for the Rangers.

Anaheim is already allowing the most shots on goal per game to their opposition. The Rangers are averaging almost 30 shots per game, and I see them piling it on. Watch for Artemi Panarin to get his shots and record a point. I think he’ll lead the offense for this game.

Shesterkin should have an easier outing than others. He did not play back in October, but this will be only the 3rd time he plays them in his career. Igor is 2-0-0 vs the Ducks but is allowing 3 goals per game on average. The game total over is definitely a good look.

Another play I like for this game is Jacob Trouba to record 3 or more blocked shots for -128. This is the team that named him captain and then shipped him off to the worst team in the league. Don’t think he forgot!
