Toronto Maple Leafs vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction & Picks - NHL
by Edgar Jibran | in NHL Picks
The best defensive team in the NHL Eastern Conference title belongs to Toronto Maple Leafs, and for that reason it isn’t weird to see them as the biggest favorites to win their game against Detroit Red Wings next Friday at 06:00 pm CST. However, they still haven’t been able to find a big efficiency when attacking, so their favoritism is still in big doubt as they couldn’t win any of their last 2 away games.
Additionally, Detroit Red Wings will have a huge pressure over their shoulders to win this game at home as none of their last 5 games in a row were won in regulation time, a fact that is totally concerning for Derek Lalonde, who hasn’t been able to qualify the Red Wings for the playoffs even when he has been the head coach of this time since the 2022-23 season.
With that in mind, Toronto Maple Leafs are expected to be solid when defending just like they were against New Jersey Devils two games ago. Nonetheless, it cannot be ignored that their offensive is one of the worst in the Atlantic Division with just 85 scored goals throughout the season, a very low effectiveness that totally explains why they had a streak of 3 games in a row without winning from December 06th to the 10th.

Our Toronto Maple Leafs vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction
To sum up, both teams aren’t having a very productive season in terms of offensive effectiveness, so the main expectation for their confrontation is having a very even game during the early stages as Detroit will most likely try to avoid getting behind as much as possible to take advantage of any available powerplay or mistake committed by Toronto. Therefore, the pick for Detroit Red Wings – Toronto Maple Leafs is: Under 6.0 Goals!
