A few short weeks ago Detroit was a 68% lock to make the playoffs, A Dylan Lrkin injury and a seven game losing streak later and they are fighting even to make the playoffs. It's not that they have lost seven in a row, they have not been in any of those games. You could literally catch up on Netflix halfway through the second period if not sooner. Over the last four games, the Red Wings have put up 1.8 goals a game and have not been able to stop the puck on the defensive end. have been on two completely different levels throughout the last handful of games as The Sabres have averaged 4.7 goals in their last three games. It feels like there's more to this than just the loss of Larkin. Detroit has to show me something before I can think of backing them again.

Play on Buffalo. This is a 4% play.
