Wings vs Storm Prediction
The Storm remains a banged-up team that’s limited offensively, and there have been some ugly losses lately. A Wings team that’s winning and can fill it up offensively, this has a chance to be ugly. However, this line is thick, and despite a strong start, I’m not sure we’re to the point where we can throw these numbers out there with the Wings. This will be the first time since 2023 that the Wings are a double-digit favorite. The Wings are 2-10-1 ATS in their last 13 games as a double-digit favorite. The Commissioner’s Cup should motivate a competitive effort. I want the points if forced to pick.
