Red Wings vs Maple Leafs Predictions and Picks
"Detroit enters this matchup playing the more consistent hockey of the two teams, especially defensively. While Toronto has been strong at home, the Maple Leafs have struggled to limit shots and goals against, which could be problematic against a Detroit team that capitalizes well on power play opportunities. With Detroit playing confidently on the road and showing better overall balance, the underdog price offers value backing the Red Wings to pull off a road win." — Kim Smith, Picks and Parlays
"Detroit rolls into this contest after winning six of their last seven games and they have scored four goals in four of their last five .... Toronto has lost three of their last four games and they have allowed six goals in all three of those losses. The Maple Leafs have been great on home ice, but Detroit is playing at a very high level and we are getting them at a great price. Take the Red Wings here." — David Racey, Sports Chat Place
"The Red Wings are worth a play as slight underdogs. Detroit has been the kryptonite of Toronto this season, winning all three meetings. And no goaltender has been hotter than Gibson. The Red Wings have picked up six victories in the past seven games since Jan. 5, and they've allowed just 2.2 goals per game in the span." — Daniel Dobish, Sportsbook Wire
