It's an early start today for the final game of Detroit's six-game homestand, as the Red Wings host the San Jose Sharks.
The Wings are riding the hot hand, as Joey MacDonald will get the start in goal. This game previously had been pegged as the return date for Jimmy Howard, but now he'll get his first start back from injury on Tuesday in Chicago. The resolution to Detroit's goalie situation will be decided in the meantime.
No lineup changes from the previous several games have been announced for the Wings. After not having been needed in Friday's game (which Henrik Zetterberg was healthy enough to play in), Tomas Tatar was returned to Grand Rapids. A poor effort against the Predators may mean Jakub Kindl is out of the lineup in favor of Mike Commodore.
Game time is 12:30 on NBC, with coverage starting at 12:00 because it's Hockey Day in America.
Sharks @ Red Wings - 2/19

Nice shot by Zetterberg. A little weak by Niemi.

FYI, this game is available on NHL.com if you're getting a different game on NBC.

I started out with the Buffalo game for all of five minutes then the Broadcast switched to the Wings. I love it!

The Sharks are pretty good at knocking pucks out of the air.

I hope Niemi threw out his back on that flop. Horrible goalie interference call.

The Sharks are trapping like no tomorrow. Neutral ice is full of bodies.

Six SOGs in the first four minutes to our none. Talk about pressure!

What is with all these calls? Are the refs trying to derail the streak? I get it if the call is warranted hoever, the call on Bert and then this one on Ericsson is ridiculous.

Wings survived the second. A couple awful calls/non-calls and awful luck on the SJ goal.
