The Red Wings hope they get more respect from the Flames Monday than they do from Vegas oddsmakers, who peg them as underdogs.
Sporting a 51-15-8 overall record and a 21-2-4 mark within the division, the Red Wings aim to knock the Flames (18-8-3 in the division) for a loss.
Oddsmakers like the Flames in this one, opening the line at 150 in favor of Calgary. Oddsmakers don't seem to think much offense will occur as they set the total at 5.5.
Detroit won at Minnesota against the Wild last game as favorites, tallying a score of 3-2. The total sailed under.
The Flames defeated the Oilers 4-1 as underdogs. That contest went under the closing total.
This game is likely to come down to the Red Wings' execution on offence. They rank 2nd in the league in scoring and look to sustain their 3.7 goals per game average against the Flames' #2-rated defensive unit.
Some trends to consider:
Detroit is 1-5-1 OU in its last 7 games
Detroit is 1-4-0 OU in its last 5 games against Calgary
Detroit is 2-5-1 OU in its last 8 games away against Calgary
Detroit is 6-11-2 OU in its last 19 away
Calgary is 2-5-1 OU in its last 8 games at home against Detroit
Calgary is 1-4-0 OU in its last 5 games against Detroit
Calgary is 1-3-1 OU in its last 5 games
Calgary is 2-13-1 OU in its last 16 at home
Next up:
Detroit home to Columbus, Friday, April 7
Calgary home to Phoenix, Wednesday, April 5
