Detroit Red Wings vs St. Louis Blues Picks and Prediction for Tuesday November 10 2026
Detroit visits St. Louis on Tuesday night for an 8 PM ET game at Enterprise Center. TNT and truTV have the coverage. These teams met less than two weeks ago, and St. Louis won 5-4 despite getting badly outshot. Now they’re both struggling to score, and neither has been playing particularly good hockey. At the time of this writing the odds were not released. I’m leaning toward the Blues at home, but I wouldn’t be putting this one anywhere near the top of my betting card. That’s asking a little more.

Detroit Can’t Buy a Goal Right Now
Detroit is 7-8-3 and has lost three straight. The Red Wings were shut out 4-0 by Colorado on Saturday after losing 2-1 to Vegas and 4-2 to Tampa Bay. That’s three goals in three games. Not exactly what you want to see from a team trying to get back above .500. Detroit has been getting shots, but the finishing hasn’t been there.
The Red Wings are averaging around 2.7 goals per game and allowing 3.1. They’re putting nearly 29 shots on net a night, which isn’t bad. The problem is converting those chances. Detroit has also been giving up some costly goals when it loses coverage around the crease. St. Louis hasn’t been scoring much lately either, so the Red Wings should have a chance to keep this close. But they’ve got to find some offense somewhere.
The injury situation isn’t helping. Marco Kasper, Mason Appleton and Albert Johansson are unavailable, while goaltender John Gibson has been dealing with a lower-body issue. Detroit needs a solid performance in net, especially after giving up five goals to St. Louis in the first meeting. The Red Wings actually controlled a lot of that game, outshooting the Blues 28-15. Losing anyway had to be frustrating. They can’t afford another night like that.

St. Louis Has Been Better at Home
St. Louis is 7-8-2 and has lost three straight. The Blues dropped a 3-1 decision to Nashville on Saturday, and that came after losses to New Jersey and the Rangers. They’ve been scoring only about 2.5 goals per game over their last ten. That’s not much better than Detroit. But the Blues have been more comfortable at Enterprise Center, where they’re 4-2-1.
St. Louis has averaged roughly 2.9 goals per game this season and allowed 3.1. The Blues aren’t generating a ton of shots, but they’ve been fairly efficient when they get good chances. That’s what happened in the first meeting with Detroit. Fifteen shots, five goals. You can’t expect that kind of shooting percentage every night, but it shows the Blues can capitalize when opponents make mistakes.
The Blues are missing Tyler Tucker, Logan Mailloux and Dillon Dube, with Torey Krug also unavailable. Those absences have hurt their depth, particularly on defense. St. Louis needs to do a better job getting the puck out of its own zone. Detroit will shoot, and the Blues can’t count on another five-goal performance from 15 attempts. But if they can limit the Red Wings’ second chances, they’ve got a decent shot at winning.
Detroit Red Wings vs St. Louis Blues Picks and Prediction
Moneyline Pick: St. Louis Blues
I’m taking St. Louis at home. This isn’t a strong play, and I’ll say that right up front. Neither team has been playing well. But the Blues have won four of seven at home, and Detroit has scored only three goals during its three-game losing streak. St. Louis also beat the Red Wings 5-4 on October 31. That game could have gone the other way, and Detroit actually played well enough to win. Still, I trust the Blues a little more at home.
Total Pick: Under — Pending Verified Line
I’ll lean under. Detroit has scored three goals in its last three games, and St. Louis has been averaging only 2.5 over its last ten. Those aren’t numbers that make me excited about betting an over. The first meeting finished 5-4, so there’s an obvious warning sign. Both defenses can make mistakes, and neither team has been particularly consistent in goal. But I think this one looks more like a 3-2 game than another nine-goal night. The posted total will determine whether there’s enough value to bet it.
Final Picks: St. Louis Blues Moneyline | Under (pending verified total)
