I hate 1pm games. These things always stink. Fortunately for us fans, this was and offensive affair between two talented young division rivals. I had anticipated Detroit vs Ottawa being more of a trench battle, but what we got was a special teams clinic — and not from the home team.
Special teams sunk the Red Wings in Saturday’s game against the Senators.

Detroit and Ottawa basically went punch-for-punch on offense in the early stages of the game. It all started with Joe Veleno, who opened the scoring early thanks to a quick feed from Dominik Kubalik.
