Point Spread: -1.50 | -123.00 San Jose (Home)
Result: Loss
San Jose has dropped five in a row. Yet the Sharks are a monster favorite against the Red Wings.
The oddsmaker is anticipating a kill spot here for the Sharks and I agree. San Jose has shown signs lately of coming out of its funk. The Sharks are the No. 3 scoring team in the NHL. They should be able to produce a lot of goals versus the Red Wings, losers of 13 of their last 16 games and ranking 29th defensively.
I'm also expecting a strong defensive effort from the Sharks. Detroit ranks 26th in scoring. The Red Wings, who are in rebuild mode, are coming off a shocking road upset of the Golden Knights from Saturday night. They probably can't be faulted for partying in Las Vegas following that improbable win.
The Red Wings have fared poorly playing in San Jose losing 13 of the last 18 times.
