The Wings face off against their division foes in Nashville for the second meeting of the teams. The Wings took advantage of a struggling Predators team 4-1 at the Joe Louis Arena the night after their epic post-Thanksgiving battle with the Bruins. This one sees a Preds team winners of three straight and four of the six they've played in December so far getting the last change and being the beneficiaries of having a bunch of jerks with cheer sheets and train whistles rooting to hear country music.
The hockey culture in Tennessee is alive and strong. The house should rock, but the Red Wings should roll.
Comment away and let's go Red Wings.
