Devils vs. Red Wings Prediction
I’m on the Red Wings here. I get why the Devils would be favored, but I didn’t love how the Devils looked in the loss to St. Louis, and head-to-head between these two teams, the home team has won each of the last four meetings. I’ll take a shot on the plus money with Detroit at home.
