Detroit at Montreal

The Detroit Red Wings have been one of the best hockey teams for the past several years. They have been 24-18 on the road as a favorite since the beginning of last season. The Canadiens have not been a home dog much in that same time period, but have a losing record when posted as such. I guess it all boils down to the fact the Red Wings have dominated this series as they are 9-4 in the last 13 meetings, but more importantly are 5-2 in Montreal. The Red Wings are also 78-38 in a game following where they allowed two goals or less, and the Canadiens haven't found the money often in the role of an underdog where they are just 10-25 in their last 35. I'll go with Detroit here.
