The Detroit Red Wings find themselves on a 4-game winning streak heading into tomorrow’s game with the 19-17-and-2 Ottawa Senators, who sit two points ahead of the Red Wings in the Atlantic Division standings.
The Senators are trying to make due without Linus Ullmark, who is week-to-week with back spasms, and Ottawa has lost 2 straight and 4 of their past 5 games.
Ottawa always shows up for Red Wings games, however, so Tuesday’s affair (7 PM EST start on FanDuel SportsNet Detroit/TSN5/RDS/97.1 FM) should be a spirited battle.
The Red Wings hit the ice at Little Caesars Arena’s BELFOR Training Center around 11:15 AM:
Grand Rapids Griffins coach Dan Watson is at Red Wings practice today watching, he drove out to Detroit today to meet Todd McLellan and Trent Yawney in person for the first time.
