Wednesday’s Sheet:

—

– I kind of like Detroit, I guess… The price is a bit steep for a visitor vs. an 18-12 home team, but the Wings have been amazing on the road this season.

– BTW, New Jersey is still the hottest team in the league, and Tampa Bay’s road offense doesn’t quite pack the same punch as it does at home. I’ll take NJD if the public pounds TBL (and moves the line).
