The Detroit Red Wings came up empty in Game One, but this team has the most consecutive playoffs appearances of any team in the league, and they have certainly been here before. I would expect them to come out strong for Game Two, feeling the consequences of starting 0-2. While they gave up 3 goals to Anaheim in game one, they have still allowed just 20 in their last 12, and I expect things to unfold differently here. The Ducks' big start turned into a 9-11 finish overall, so they certainly can be had here. The Red Wings have taken their last four on a day of rest, while the Ducks are just 3-7 in their last 10 at home vs. a team with a losing road record. Go with the Red Wings here.
