The Red Wings are back at home after a Florida trip not unlike when I vacation with my children: a lot of tears, a lot of anger, and wondering why the decision was made to even attempt the excursion.
Fresh off an 8-day break, the Wings dropped back-to-back decisions to the Lightning and Panthers, a disappointing start to the post-All Star Game schedule. The Wings have been pretty average at home (which fits right in with their overall record this season), and start a 5-game homestand as the Islanders come to town for a Saturday afternoon affair.
