Ottawa Senators vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 03/24/26

The Ottawa Senators will be playing their second consecutive game in as many days when they are in Detroit to take on the Red Wings on Tuesday night. It cannot be emphasized how important these two points are. Both of teams find themselves just on the outside looking in to the final two wildcard playoff spots. I am expecting a tight playoff style of game to be played between these teams on Tuesday. In the last five games the Red Wings have played, the under is 4-1. They are a solid defensive team, allowing only 2.93 goals per game, which is 10^th best in the NHL. On the flip side of this, they are below average offensively. They are scoring 2.90 goals per game, ranked 21^st in the league.

Heading into action on Monday, the under is 5-2 in the last seven games played by the Senators. Linus Ullmark is projected to get the start for the Senators, and he has been good recently. He is averaging only two goals against per game in his last four starts. I expect a low-scoring game on Tuesday, give me the under in this one.

Senators vs. Red Wings prediction: Under 6.5 (-130) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
