Detroit at Florida

Detroit can play any style at #10 in the NHL in goals scored and second on the power play. But Goalie Jimmy Howard is still out (groin injury) and the Red Wings are 2-5 in the last seven meetings against Florida. Florida is home and 4-0 playing on three or more days of rest, plus 6-2 against the Atlantic Division. Detroit dropped both meetings with the Panthers at Joe Louis Arena. Vincent Trocheck had a goal and two assists while Roberto Luongo made 38 saves in Florida's 4-3 victory Dec. 2, and Luongo stopped 29 shots in a 4-3 shootout win Dec. 12. Florida is also 11-5-3 over the total against a team with a winning record and when these teams meet the OVER is 3-1-1, so grab the home team and look for plenty of offense. Play Florida and the game OVER the total.
