NHL Predictions: March 9th New York Islanders vs Anaheim DucksWelcome back to another edition of NHL Predictions. Each day, Last Word on Hockey reviews the scheduled games and offers insight and analysis to help predict who will win in key head-to-head matchups.
The Islanders trail the Ducks in the season series 0-1-0 after a 3-1 loss at UBS Arena on Oct. 29. Mathew Barzal scored the lone goal for the Islanders with a power play tally, but it wasn’t enough to combat Anaheim’s offense with Leo Carlsson and Troy Terry potting power play goals of their own and Frank Vatrano burying the empty-net goal.
The Ducks received 19-year-old prospect Herman Traff and a second-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft in exchange for defenseman Brian Dumoulin.
