Detroit at Ottawa

It seems to be a given that the Detroit Red Wings will make the playoffs every single year, it is just a matter of how far they will go. They are off to a very strong start at 6-2-3, and have just one true road loss so far this season. Ottawa broke out fast at 4-1, but they have quickly wilted as the Senators have lost their way in posting a 1-4 mark in their last five, and they have now dropped two straight on home ice. The Senators have allowed 13 goals in four played at the Canadian Tire Centre, and could be in trouble with an aggressive Detroit attack. This has been a lopsided series in recent play as Detroit owns a 6-2 mark in the last eight, and stepping over the border has been met with a 4-0 mark for Detroit in their last four trips North. Bank on Detroit.
