Oilers vs. Red Wings Prediction

I’m on the over here. I think the Oilers win this Game, but this is still a hefty price for me for the Oilers who I’m still waiting to see really turn the corner. Detroit has been a decent team on the second half of the back-to-back going back to last year, but a lot of the Red Wings’ Games on no rest saw a lot of goals and I think there are more goals here. Give me the over.
