Colorado at Detroit

The Avalanche had a shinning moment when they ended the Blackhawks long streak, but that was on home ice and the shinning moments on the road have been few and far between. Colorado heads to Detroit and they are a dismal 2-12-3 on the road on the season. Detroit has a long standing reputation, well earned at home, where they have accrued a 348-155-16 record. Put them on any ice vs. a bad team, one that is less than .400, and the Wings have reigned supreme at 149-69-12 over their last 230. The odds here are very short under the circumstances, so lay the chalk and play on Detroit, who has taken 24 of the last 35 in this series.
