Game Notes |
| DET -Cam Talbot will likely start for the Red Wings -Detroit surprisingly finds themselves at the top of the Atlantic division. They're coming off a 5-2 loss to Carolina on Saturday night but were 8-2 in their last 10 games prior to the holiday break |
| TOR -Dennis Hildeby will likely start for the Leafs -Nylander left Toronto's game against the sens with a lower body injury. Berube stated that he would be travelling with the team to Detroit so he'll likely be a game time decision |
