The struggling Detroit Red Wings are in a good position to put their worries behind them on Tuesday as they face the New Jersey Devils at Little Caesars Arena. The Devils will likely carry heavy legs after Monday's battle with Ottawa.
New Jersey will have less than 24 hours to prepare for this matchup. They will come off a tough game against an in-form team and will have traveled for a couple of hours. The team finds itself in a very tricky situation.
The Red Wings had a back-to-back that ended on Saturday and will be well rested. Todd McLellan’s side sits on a 1-3-1 record but has much more potential, especially with Dylan Larkin back in the fold.
Larkin didn’t make his season debut until the third game of the year. He’s still finding his sharpness, but Larkin has the quality to make a difference at any moment. The 2026 Olympic champion should also have all the motivation in the world after not getting his trade wish in the summer. Larkin must show potential suitors how much he can add to a team.
The Devils have been among Larkin’s favorite opponents over the years, with 31 points (15 goals, 16 assists) in 27 games. Larkin's strong play usually translates to good results for the Red Wings.

Our Detroit Red Wings vs New Jersey Devils Prediction
Detroit’s early-season woes have been heavily linked to a poor defensive record. However, they improved significantly at the back in Saturday’s 1-0 shootout loss to Montreal. The offense should follow once Larkin finds his flow.
New Jersey has had an inconsistent start to the campaign and won’t feel good traveling to Detroit after taking a heavy beating from the Islanders in their first road game of the season.
Our prediction for Detroit Red Wings vs. New Jersey Devils: Red Wings to win.
