NHL - Anaheim v Phoenix

Ok.A big goalie match up here as Bryzgalov returns with Coyotes to Anaheim to face his ex-team mate Giguere and the Ducks.

I was really surprised when Anaheim Ducks () gave up their top quality back up goalie Bryzgalov, last Friday.Shortly he was picked by goalkeeper troubled Phoenix and proved to be a goalie powerhouse - conceding just 1 goal in two matches.

Anaheim is generally very good in scoring against teams like Phoenix, but they will have to score against highly motivated goalie here.

Ducks are unstable 10-9-3 and cant really find their great form from last year.However,they showed some improvement lately, winning 4 of last 5.But the way they play is simply far from what they were capable of in the last year.

Phoenix is 9-10-0, and looks to build on the new goalie.Their performance against the Kings in their last 2 matches was solid, they just have to add something to their offense.They will hope to get some more support fro point leader Doan, especially from experienced players like Jovanovski and York.

Surprisingly, Coyotes have won both meeting in Anaheim this season, while loosing all for visits last year.

This game will be all about the goalies.Giguere isnt the best this year, but he should be very focused tonight to prove that he really is the number 1.And by his experience in the league, he is the type of a player to deliver in the crucial moments.

Generally, the games between these two are usually high scoring matters, but IMO,both teams will look for the concentration of their goalies today.They will also look to provide enough defense support for the goalies.

I believe that Ducks have 60 percent to take this game as they know that they can beat them on the home ice.It will all depend on defense and offense dynamics and they are the ones to click all factors together.Expect a slow start to the match, with more fireworks in the second period and probably tight defending in the third.The result of 3:2 for Ducks seems to be a good possibility here.
