Detroit Red Wings vs Chicago Blackhawks Prediction, Odds and Picks for Wednesday, 11/06/24

It’s a classic, Original Six matchup in the NHL on Wednesday when Dylan Larkin and the Detroit Red Wings face Connor Bedard and the Chicago Blackhawks. This commences a 2-game road trip for the Red Wings and marks the first home contest for the Blackhawks since October 25. The teams have played very similarly this season, but my expert Red Wings vs Blackhawks prediction will help uncover what may play out.

On paper, the Red Wings boast a much better and deeper team than the Blackhawks, but Chicago is currently playing better hockey. It is 3-1-0 in its last 4 compared to Detroit, which is 1-2-1. The ‘Hawks are showing that they cannot be taken lightly, and as the home team in this game I see them taking the win as a slight underdog. There are lots of strong players that go under the radar in Chicago, but more importantly they always bring a strong work ethic. The Red Wings have been a little too inconsistent for my liking — even with the young stars on their team — so for this Red Wings vs Blackhawks prediction, I’m leaning on the Chicago money line.
