The Ducks and Senators have a history of playing low scoring games in Disneyland, and that has continued in this series, so go Under tonight with Pronger back for Anaheim.

This looks like a rather generous price for the Under in this spot, considering that three of the first four games of these Stanley Cup Finals failed to exceed this posted total of five goals.

In fact, the last four head-to-head meetings between the Ottawa Senators and the Anaheim Ducks here in this rink have averaged a combined total output of just 3.50 goals per game! Furthermore, the most goals scored in any of those games was five, which would just push and not lose in this spot. The defensive numbers for these teams for the whole year combining regular season and playoffs also support a low scoring game here, with the Ducks allowing only 2.29 goals per game at home and the Senators surrendering 2.76 goals on the road.

Finally, the Anaheim back line receives a boost here with the return of Chris Pronger, arguably the best defenseman in the NHL, from suspension.

Free Pick: Senators, Ducks Under 5 (+115)

I like it myself LT. Both teams should play a grind it out type game tonight.
