Game notes: A fine time to face the best team in the league, eh? The Wings, fresh off a 5-4 overtime win at New Jersey, will host the Habs in an Original Six matchup. On Friday, Detroit lost goalie Jimmy Howard, whose emerged as the best option in net, to a groin injury and will be out at least a week, according to coach Jeff Blashill.
