The game here should be interesting to see if Detroit has had the time to properly prepare for what is a very strong Lightning offense. However, the talent level in Detroit is very limited and the chance of the Red Wings being prepared is limited and that leads to the Tampa Bay team getting the win here. Final Score Prediction, Tampa Bay Lightning win 4-2.
