The Detroit Red Wings will play archrival Boston Bruins for the first time this season on Saturday at Little Caesars Arena. The Red Wings ended their losing streak on Thursday after edging the New York Islanders 2-1. Trailing 0-1 after two periods, Detroit scored two goals in the final period to clinch the win. Jonathan Berggren scored an equalizer at 15:14 mark and Lucas Raymond sneaked in the game-winning goal at 19:08 mark of the third. The Bruins also snapped their three-game win drought after nipping the Utah Hockey Club 1-0. Elias Lindholm slotted in the only goal of the match at the 12:41 mark of the second period, and Bruins Joonas Korpisalo took it from that point, racking up 22 saves for his second shutout of the season. Boston improved their record to 9-9-3 in the season.
