The Red Wings youth was yet again front and center for what was an unusual game early Saturday at Little Caesars Arena. On one hand it was a noon start (weird), and Trevor Thompson was on play-by-play call for Bally Sports (unusual, but I thought he did a good job once he got comfortable). It was also the return of Thomas Greiss, who was brilliant.
This game had a bit of a different tempo and theme to it than the last. Philadelphia had an edge early on but Detroit opened the scoring a little more than five minutes in.
