The Detroit Red Wings are off a shootout loss against Boston to fall to 1-1-1 on the season. Tonight they look to get back on track when they cross the border and take on Toronto. Toronto has gotten great net play from James Reimer who has allowed just 2.24 goals per game at 2-0. But with back-to-back games tonight and Saturday, Jonathan Bernier will get the call between the pipes tonight. Bernier is 0-2 with a 4.52 goals allowed average, and Detroit should hold the advantage tonight. Toronto owns just a 4-14 record dating back to the end of last season in their last 18 games. Detroit has fared well against teams with a home winning percentage of less than .400 where they are 5-1 in their last six dating back to the tail end of last season. Take Detroit on the road in this one.
