Detroit comes off a tough 2-1 loss to Carolina on Thursday when Ville Husso stopped 37 shots, but the Red Wings couldn't solve Hurricanes goalie Pyotr Kochetkov, who had 25 saves. Alex Lyon will get the call tonight for Detroit and he is 4-2-0 with a 2.13 GAA and .931 save percentage with one shutout as Husso's backup. Both teams are playing their third game in five days, but Philadelphia had to go into overtime its past two while losing 3-2 in OT to Nashville and then the Flyers had a 4-3 shootout win over Washington on Thursday. Detroit averages 3.69 goals per game compared to 3.01 for the Flyers and the Red Wings are getting good value as road underdogs. Play the Red Wings.
