Detroit Red Wings' surging form, with four wins in their last five games including a 6-3 rout of the Maple Leafs, anchors trader consensus favoring them over the struggling Montreal Canadiens, who sit near the bottom of the Atlantic Division after dropping three straight amid goaltending inconsistencies from Sam Montembeault and Cayden Primeau. Montreal's injury woes compound issues, with Kirby Dach out long-term and recent scratches for key defenders, while Detroit boasts depth from Dylan Larkin and Alex DeBrincat's hot streaks. Home-ice edge at Little Caesars Arena and rested legs post-bye week tilt probabilities further; historical matchups show Red Wings winning three of the last five, underscoring momentum as the pivotal shift in market odds.
