Vegas oddsmakers predict Ducks to have most points for 2017-18
Las Vegas sportsbooks make a living off of sharp predictions. Win totals, losses, even injuries. You name it, Vegas will handicap it.
And, usually, their expert predictions are scarily accurate. So, when the projected 2017-18 point totals for all NHL clubs were released by Westgate SuperBook on Tuesday, it came as a bit of a surprise that the Anaheim Ducks were pegged as the team to earn the most points.
