The Avalanche come into this game with a 21-17-3 record overall and they have gone 10-8-3 at home. It has been a down season for Colorado but they are coming off quite the victory.

Trends

The Red Wings are 5-21 in their last 26 games played on Monday. The over is 4-1 in the Avalanche’s last five home games. The under is 4-1 in the Avs last five games on Monday. The Red Wings are 1-5 in their last 6 when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in their previous game. The under is 5-1 in the Red Wings last six games as an underdog. 

Pick

The Avs are coming off quite the win over the Senators, but overall this season they have struggled, and we don’t want an overreaction here. The Red Wings are averaging 3.09 goals and they have the offense to keep this game close. Detroit might not win this game, but they are going to over the puck line. Back Red Wings +1.5. It wouldn't shock me if Detroit pulled the upset.
