Buffalo Sabres vs. Detroit Red Wings Prediction

I’m on the Red Wings here. This is a bit of a hefty price but it’s still in line with what I’m willing to pay considering the Red Wings have been at their best by a mile at home while the Sabres are still winless on the road this season. I think Detroit gets it done on home ice so give me Detroit in this one.
