The Detroit Red Wings will face off against the Vancouver Canucks tonight in an effort to break their winless streak on the road. Vancouver has returned from a rough start and, for the second game in a row, Detroit will face off against a hot goalie.
The key for Detroit is going to be to shut down Vancouver offensively. This shouldn’t be too difficult as they have struggled in that department since losing Daniel Sedin to a broken foot. Bound to have a great game is former Red Wing Mikael Samuelsson, who currently has five goals and five assists for the Canucks, more points than any Red Wing has amassed this season.
Detroit will need to put a lot of pressure on Roberto Luongo, who was pressured heavily in Vancouver’s first two games, giving up 6 goals in each. Applying pressure tonight could give the Wings a big win on the road, and the first of their season.
