Lucas Raymond supplied two assists and Viktor Arvidsson added a goal and an assist in Detroit’s shootout win at Edmonton. Those contributions give Red Wings parlay picks for the visit from Chicago a passing angle worth comparing. Raymond’s point offer allows either a goal or a helper; Arvidsson’s assist offer asks specifically for the pass that produces a teammate’s goal.
The premise here is a Detroit win over the Blackhawks. The supporting histories differ substantially: Raymond brings a larger record across Red Wings wins, while Arvidsson’s Detroit sample contains only twelve games. Raymond has also recorded a point in only five of those twelve games, so the latest productive night isn’t the whole story.
Detroit is 5–4–3 and Chicago 4–8, with Dylan Larkin listed out for the Red Wings. This Side & Support edition compares two individually priced options around that hypothetical team result. You can choose one or use your own combination; the records don’t establish a prediction or a combined success rate.
Two Red Wings player props to compare
Raymond’s Detroit record covers the 2025–26 season through October 26. Arvidsson’s covers his twelve Detroit appearances this season, without adding games for a former club. Each all-game record uses the same dates, team and actual ice-time rule as the corresponding winning record.
These are individual DraftKings prices checked Thursday, October 29. Prices can change, and the live card above has its own update for the game markets.
| Player & prop | Odds | With this result | All games |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lucas Raymond 1+ point |
−190 | 84.1% 37 of 44 Detroit wins |
62.0% 57 of 92 Detroit appearances |
| Viktor Arvidsson 1+ assist |
+170 | 80.0% 4 of 5 Detroit wins |
33.3% 4 of 12 Detroit appearances |
Lucas Raymond: 1+ point at −190
Raymond recorded at least one point in 37 of 44 Detroit wins (84.1%), compared with 57 of 92 Red Wings appearances overall (62.0%). That is a useful difference to examine around a Detroit-win view. Seven Detroit victories still finished without a Raymond point, including two this season.
His latest road games show both the attraction and the limitation. Raymond had two goals and an assist at Vancouver, no points at Calgary, then two assists in the shootout victory at Edmonton. He played 17:42, 20:47 and 21:12 respectively. The scoring came in two Detroit wins, but the intervening full workload at Calgary didn’t bring a point.
Across all twelve games this season, he has a point in five, including three of the five Detroit wins. That recent record is materially less consistent than the longer winning sample. It is a reason to keep the comparison modest: the larger history supports looking at one point, while the opening weeks don’t justify describing him as scoring every night.
The price ladder makes one point a different decision from chasing another big game. 2+ points was +235, but Raymond reached two in only 19 of 44 Detroit wins and 24 of 92 appearances overall. Moving from one point to two removes eighteen successes from the winning sample. Four of his five productive games this season have been multi-point nights, which can make the higher rung tempting, but that short pattern hasn’t been the norm across the fuller record.
Detroit has also won without a Raymond point in ordinary minutes. He was scoreless in 21:45 against Philadelphia and 20:02 against San Jose this month. The prior-season March 19 victory over Montreal brought another zero in 18:45. Those are actual winning-game misses, not absent or barely used appearances.
Raymond is listed on the second line at right wing in the current matchup personnel. Larkin’s absence changes Detroit’s forward context, so his exact deployment shouldn’t be assumed from the earlier games. One point is the more forgiving scoring requirement if you’re backing Detroit, while the recent dry nights and the change in personnel deserve weight alongside the longer history.
Viktor Arvidsson: 1+ assist at +170
Arvidsson has assisted on a goal in four of Detroit’s five wins (80.0%), compared with four of his twelve Red Wings appearances overall (33.3%). Every assisting game in this small Detroit sample has coincided with a win. That is the observed pattern, not evidence that an assist causes the result or an estimate of how often it will happen next.
The sample size is the main qualification. These are his twelve Detroit games this season. An association can change quickly when it rests on only five team wins. His appearances for other clubs aren’t included in either side of this comparison.
The recent sequence is encouraging for the specific passing task. Arvidsson recorded two assists at Vancouver, none at Calgary, then one at Edmonton. His ice time was 13:59, 20:19 and 18:11. The Vancouver game shows that a helper doesn’t require a particularly long night, while Calgary shows that twenty minutes doesn’t guarantee one.
For an alternative, his actual 1+ point offer was −125. It also succeeded in four of five Detroit wins, but in seven of twelve appearances overall. That broader success record includes three Detroit losses where Arvidsson scored a goal without an assist. A goal alone helps the point offer and does nothing for the assist offer. The +170 price therefore pays more for a narrower action, even though the two records happen to match across these first five victories.
His only Detroit win without an assist in the sample was the 2–1 game against Philadelphia, when he played 19:59 and finished without a point. There is room for Detroit to win a lower-scoring game without needing a contribution from this particular winger. The helper offer fits a view in which Arvidsson participates in the scoring, rather than merely a view that the Red Wings finish ahead.
He’s listed on the first line at right wing, but Larkin being out means the forward setup isn’t the same as the games behind the record. That uncertainty matters more with only five winning games available. At +170, this is the more specific, less established route to compare with Raymond’s one-point option, not a reason to turn a small historical split into a confidence claim.
Choosing your Detroit route
Raymond’s one point offers the larger winning-game sample and allows scoring or passing to do the work. Arvidsson’s one assist offers a plus-money price, with a much smaller Detroit history and a narrower requirement. His −125 point alternative leaves room for a goal-only contribution if you prefer that tradeoff to +170 for an assist.
Both options depend on the same Detroit offense. They can be connected by the same scoring play, so you shouldn’t treat their separate records as independent or multiply them into a combined success rate. Choose the player contribution that best fits the game you expect, and use the sportsbook’s actual quote if you combine selections.
