This is a 6* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the Detroit Red Wings.

We fully expect the Red Wings to come in focused on the task at hand and that makes this a price that we have no issues at all in laying. This is also a revenge game for Detroit after it fell in Edmonton in the team's first meeting this season. The Red Wings outshot Boston 34-22 on Wednesday, but couldn't hold a late lead and lost 3-2 in OT: "I thought we played great, so that's something to build off of. Obviously, we've got to find ways to hold onto that lead and find ways to win in overtime," forward Darren Helm said. "I think we keep moving, build off the positives that we did today and come back for next game." A date at home is just what the doctor ordered to get back on track though as the Wings have won 25 of 31 against the Oilers at home and their nine-game home win streaks its longest active one against any opponents. Edmonton comes in wounded, most recently losing Nail Yakupov for at least two weeks in Wednesday's 4-1 road loss to Carolina. The Oilers are just 1-4-1 in their last six overall, while losing four straight on the road, goaltender Cam Talbot has given up 13 goals in his last three outings. The home side counters with Jimmy Howard, who has won his last 12 starts against Edmonton behind a tiny 1.48 GAA. Play on DETROIT.
