As the Detroit Red Wings continue their quest to end their long postseason drought, they get ready for a tough test when they welcome the Vegas Golden Knights to town on Sunday.
As we delve deeper into the month of March, the Red Wings continue to fight to stay in the race for the Stanley Cup Playoffs. As of Thursday, the team sits sixth in the Atlantic Division, two points back of the Columbus Blue Jackets for the last Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference.
Before the Red Wings return home on Sunday, they will be tasked with another tough battle on Friday night when they visit the Carolina Hurricanes.
On the other side, the Golden Knights are looking like the team to beat in the Western Conference. Thanks to a strong offensive presence led by the talented Jack Eichel and a stout defense in front of goaltender Adin Hill, Vegas is on its way to home-ice advantage in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The Golden Knights currently lead the Pacific Division, five points ahead of the second-place Edmonton Oilers.
