ROGERS' 10* UNDERDOG ELITE OF THE ELITE > > THIS IS THE BIG ONE!
(NHL) Detroit vs. Montreal,
Money Line: 214.00 Detroit (Away)
Result: Win
The set-up: The 13-17 Habs are a big favorite at home to the 7-24 Red Wings. In fact, too big in my estimation, swinging the value to the under-valued underdog. Clearly the Wings have struggled this year, but so to has Montreal. The Canadiens don't really have a clear advantage at any position either, with both teams sport decent goaltenders (Jonathan Bernier for the Wings and Carey Price for the Canadiens) and offensive talent (Dylan Larkin for Detroit and Shea Webber for Montreal.)

The pick: With two nights off before an extended Western Canadian road swing, the potential to get caught "looking ahead" is also present for the home side. The Wings offer fantastic value to pull off the upset here vs. the over-priced Habs.
