Buffalo Sabres (29-31-12) at Detroit Red Wings (28-31-11)
Puck drop: 7:30 p.m. EST | Joe Louis Arena | Detroit, MI
Three Questions
1. How will the defensive call-ups perform tonight?
Casey Nelson and Brady Austin have been recalled from Rochester to play tonight, since Franson, Falk, Fedun, and Kulikov are all injured. Nelson we’ve seen before, though hopefully his confidence and play are both in a better spot than when he last left Buffalo.
Brady Austin, on the other hand, is a 7th round draft pick from 2012 and will be making his NHL debut tonight.
