T.M. Selection: Detroit Red Wings.

I like the Detroit Red Wings to win this game against the Chicago Blackhawks on Wednesday. The Red Wings have lost 2 games in a row but I think they are due for a bounce back here. The Red Wings haven't played a game since Saturday, they lost on the road to the Predators 4-1 in that game and have been sitting on that bad loss since then. I think with all of that time between then and now to think about that loss in Nashville, the Red Wings will come out with a fire lit under them and play hard to get a bounce back win here on their home ice. The Red Wings have had some dominant performances on their home ice this year and it is where they play their best hockey. Their previous home game was a loss to the Stars but the Stars had to take them to OT just to get those 2 points. The Red Wings are not a great team this year but I think they have their best chances of winning games when they play on home ice. The Blackhawks have actually been even worse than the Red Wings have this year so I think this is the perfect spot for the Red Wings to bounce back and beat up on a bad team here. The Blackhawks have lost 4 games in a row now but long losing streaks have been a common theme for them all year. They have also lost 3 games in a row on the road and they haven't looked good in their road games all year. The Blackhawks are another team just like the Red Wings in the sense that they play much better on home ice and struggle a lot more in road games. I think the Blackhawks are going to continue their struggles here and I expect the Red Wings to get a nice bounce back win here on home ice, I like the Red Wings to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Red Wings.
