The Penguins are coming into this game with a 0-1-0 record this season. They are coming off of a 6-0 loss to the Rangers in their 1st game of the season and that game was also at home. They are playing this game on a B2B now and this is an aging team that is lacking a lot of younger talent as well. Their defense was awful in their 1st game as they were down 3-0 in the 1st period and allowed 6 goals in the game, but their offense was also awful as they were shut out and put up no fight in the next 2 periods after going down 3-0 in the 1st. They are going up against a Red Wings team that is playing their 1st game of the season here and they have improved quite a bit. They have been building this team the last few seasons and they were very close to making the playoffs last season, finishing the season with 91 points which actually tied the Capitals who did make the playoffs. The Red Wings missed out on the playoffs last season due to the tiebreaker with the Capitals, but that is going to be a big focus for them this year so they will be hungry to get off to a good start at home. They have a nice mix of younger players as well as veterans to guide this team as well. This is a bad spot for the Penguins on a B2B when they just got shut out 6-0 at home while the Red Wings are going to be hungry to start their season with a home win and take advantage of a struggling Penguins team that missed the playoffs last year and has been in decline. The Red Wings will win this game at home.
