Hold onto your butts...

We got ourselves a game three matchup tonight, gang. The heavily-favored Tampa Bay Lightning roll into the Joe Louis Arena to dance with the Detroit Red Wings once again.

After an ugly 5-1 loss on Saturday, head coach Mike Babcock made some changes to his lineup, a lot of those changes weren't anything new to us as fans. Justin Abdelkader will return this evening and play on the first line with Henrik Zetterberg, and Gustav Nyquist while Pavel Datsyuk centers Darren Helm and Tomas Tatar.
