Pre-Game Notes

from Dana Wakiji of DetroitRedWings.com,

Toronto Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock summed up the Red Wings' situation succinctly Saturday morning.

"They're not scoring or haven't scored," Babcock said. "They're playing real well defensively and competing hard. I think they've done a good job. To me, you got to generate some offense. They haven't scored so that makes it harder for them."

The Wings have 189 goals compared to the Leafs' 251.

In the last game, the Washington Capitals had one real Grade A chance when they had a 2-on-0 with Brett Connolly and Jakub Vrana and they scored on it, which was enough to win the game, 1-0.
