San Jose Sharks vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction

The Detroit Red Wings have been the better team overall this season, but I’m not laying juice with them on the road. The Red Wings have lost 4 of their last 5 Games, and their offense is picking and choosing when to show up. The San Jose Sharks have issues of their own and are arguably the worst team in the league. However, their ability to steal a win here and there as big underdogs has made them profitable over the last couple of weeks. Two teams in shaky at best form. Give me the home team and the more favorable price.
