It's hardly much of a reward for knocking off the Presidents' Trophy winners, but Anaheim doesn't expect anything to be easy against the Detroit Red Wings.
A date in Hockeytown won't intimidate the Ducks, who already have showed they're capable of taking an elite team's best shot. They won the first two games of the first round in San Jose, setting the tone for the series.
Detroit and Anaheim have met four times previously in the postseason. The Ducks eliminated the Red Wings in 2007 on the way to their franchise's only Stanley Cup, and they didn't meet last year while Detroit won the championship.
The Red Wings are +250 favorites to win the Cup this year and should be a greater challenge than the Sharks. Get your NHL odds with Bodog now.
