Stephen Nover's NHL Wednesday Wipeout Winner
(NHL) Boston vs. Detroit, 01/18/2017 3:00 PM, Score: 5 - 6
Money Line: -134.00 Boston (Away)
Result: Loss
I'm not afraid to lay a road price with the Bruins here. Boston has the fourth-best road mark in the league at 13-8-4-1. Detroit has a losing home record.

The Bruins let down in their last game and paid the price losing an embarrassing 4-0 home game to the Islanders on Monday. They should be ready here. Boston has defeated Detroit in eight of the last nine matchups.

The Red Wings are off a 1-0 home victory against the Canadiens. I don't like Detroit's goaltending with Jimmy Howard. Prior to that win over Montreal, the Red Wings had given up 18 goals in their last four games.

The Bruins have a huge edge in goal with Tukka Rask, who shut out Detroit 1-0 on the road in the team's last meeting in late October.
