The Detroit Red Wings face off against the Edmonton Oilers this evening (7:30 PM on Bally Sports Detroit/Sportsnet East/Sportsnet Ontario/Sportsnet Pacific/97.1 FM), with the 6-5-and-2 Wings facing perhaps their stiffest test in battling the 9-and-1 Oilers.
The Red Wings took Monday off after defeating the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday and the Vegas Golden Knights on Sunday; Edmonton comes into Detroit having won 4 straight games, including a 6-5 victory over the New York Rangers on Saturday.
The Red Wings took to the ice first at Little Caesars Arena, per The Athletic’s Max Bultman:
