Going without hockey is really lame. The last time we got to watch these Red Wings play was on Saturday, and I felt like I was having withdrawals. Thankfully, we returned to action tonight to kick-off a three-game road trip in Edmonton, Alberta. What could the focal point of this game be? Hmmmm, I wonder. How about one of the most praised prospects in Connor McDavid against American Hero Dylan Larkin, perhaps? Two rising stars going head-to-head in battle. Excited? YOU BET.

Red Wings simply needed to come out and make a statement.
