Randy’s Free Pick

The Detroit Red Wings are playing well at the moment, but they don’t win on the road dating back to last year, and that’s an issue here. The Ottawa Senators have played the better hockey this season overall, they’re slightly better offensively, and home ice should matter. We’re not laying anything crazy. Give me the Senators and the reasonable price.
