The Detroit Red Wings have become a fixture in the playoffs, and not just getting here, sticking around and going deep. Redwings turned it up to close the regular season at 17-5, and their playoff pedigree shows37-15 in their last 52 playoff games posted as a favorite. Coyotes haven't been such a challenging playoff opponent, as they have really been humbled in the quarterfinals round of the playoffs. Phoenix owns a not so impressive 2-11 in their last 13 playoff games in this round. Redwings 16-5-3 in their last 24 trips to Phoenix, and you can bet they will be tougher in the playoffs. I'll go with Detroit in this one.
