Detroit Red Wings vs. St. Louis Blues Prediction

I’m on the Red Wings here. I just don’t like what I’m seeing from St. Louis up to this point coming into this game as they’ve been struggling with consistency and have now allowed 6+ goals in 3 straight games. The Red Wings have been solid for the better part of the year and I think that the Red Wings get the job done once again in this game. Give me Detroit here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Detroit -115
