Here are four things to know ahead of the game:
Dylan Larkin questionable
Dylan Larkin, who leads the Red Wings with 49 points this season, is questionable for this game. He suffered a strained oblique in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. Blashill said Saturday he expected Larkin to miss 1-2 weeks.
Forward Michael Rasmussen has been recalled from the AHL's Grand Rapids Griffins. Rasmussen, 19, has 6 goals and 7 assists in his rookie NHL campaign with the Red Wings. He was recently sent down to the AHL for conditioning. With Larkin out of the lineup, Rasmussen gets another chance to prove himself at the NHL level.
Red Wings lines could look like this:
