Game Preview | |
A Look BackThe Habs started off the season with a comeback win! Cole Caufield was the first star of the night with a two-goal game and Josh Anderson scored the game winner late in the third period. The Habs dressed three players making their NHL debut including Kaiden Guhle, who led the team in minutes. The Habs young blue line will continue to be tested as veteran defenceman Mike Matherson was put on injured reserve leaving the rookies to learn on the fly.

Game Expectations |
This should be a very exciting game. The Wings are a young and talented team led by Moritz Seider. The young defenceman can do it all, finishing with 50 points in his rookie season. The Habs are also very young and are looking to show that they are an improved team as well. It will be interesting to see how they react to a rested and eager Wings squad.
Bottom LineThe Habs want to be a competitive team and should be able to go toe-to-toe with the Wings. It will need to be a complete team effort in order for the Habs to start the season with a second win.
