Detroit Red Wings vs Boston Bruins Prediction 

Both of these teams were able to snap three-game losing streaks with a win last time out and they will look to make it two in a row here. The Bruins are only 3-5-1 on the road, while the Red Wings are 4-4-1 at home. Both teams have been very low-scoring so far this season, but the Red Wings do have a very solid power play. I think this game could go either way, but I am going to side with Detroit, as they played one of their best games of the year last time out. Take the Red Wings here.
