NHL Playoffs: Red Wings After-Practice Report For Monday

DETROIT -- After getting walloped in Tampa on Saturday in game two of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Red Wings are returning home for their share of home games in hopes to counter the score-happy Lightning.

Practice began around 11:00 this morning, and one of the first line changes spilled by the diggers was the fact that Stephen Weiss looks to be out on Tuesday for game three, and Justin Abdelkader will be making his 2015 postseason debut.

Early indication is that Weiss will be scratched for Abdelkader in Game 3 since Weiss is extra forward skating with top six (in red).
