After a shutout loss in Chicago on Sunday, the Detroit Red Wings are looking for some holiday luck and a win for their fans today against the Blackhawks in Detroit.
The Blackhawks are coming off a loss last night in Chicago where they out-shot San Jose 47-14. Detroit is hoping to give their fans an early Christmas gift and pull a big win out tonight. The Wings made some changes after Sunday; the biggest being that forward Kris Newbery is being replaced by Mattias Ritola. Tonight will be Ritola’s first game of the season. The Wings will need to play a physical game tonight and make the Blackhawks to work hard to move the puck. The Wings will need to force turnovers tp avoid a repeat of Sunday.
The big news from the Wings is that injured forward Valtteri Filppula might be returning too the lineup the day after Christmas.
