Final Stars-Red Wings Prediction & Pick

Both teams come into the game more than capable of scoring plenty of goals. Still, the Red Wings have the better goaltending situation. Alex Lyon has been wonderful this year. He will keep this game close. Still, the delta between the two defenses is greater than the delta between the two offenses. This favors the Red Wins, who will win as the underdog at home in this one.
