Red-hot Red Wings run into stone-cold Craig Anderson, fall to Senators 2-1 in Ottawa.

Now when I signed up for this recap a few weeks ago, I firmly was set on the “Things are bad, but at least we’re not Ottawa,” narrative. Granted, that still fits because the Ottawa Senators may be the biggest dumpster fire in all of sports right now, but I certainly didn’t expect this turnaround from the Red Wings. Detroit’s won 7 of 8 and could be 1-point out of a playoff spot with a win tonight (I know it’s November, don’t worry). Meanwhile Ottawa’s lost 8 of their last 11. Off we go from the Canadian Tire Center!
