Detroit at Florida

A pair of dominant defenses clash in this one. Detroit is #24 in the NHL in scoring, #26 on the power play, but #13 in goals allowed, a defensive-first team off a 3-1 win at Columbus. Detroit is 18-7-2 UNDER the total against the Atlantic Division, plus 33-16-19 UNDER on the road vs. a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600. Florida is fifth in the NHL in goals allowed and #11 in penalty killing, off a 4-1 win at Toronto. Florida is 30-13-10 UNDER the total after allowing two or fewer goals in their previous game. And when these teams clash it's been all about defense as the UNDER is 16-7-2 in the last 25 meetings, including 9-4 UNDER at Florida. Take this one to finish UNDER the total.
