The Detroit Red Wings have not had a great season, but they have hit rock bottom over the past couple of weeks. They have lost 10 straight games, including nine of those in regulation and have yet to win a game in March.
Peter Mrazek will get a chance to add to his former team's misery in his first game back in Detroit since being traded to the Flyers last month.
The Flyers will go for the season sweep of the Red Wings tonight and if they win, it will be the first time they beat Detroit three times in the same season this 1982-83. The Flyers have scored seven goals in the previous two meetings, all coming from seven different players. Claude Giroux has four assists against the Wings, while Sean Couturier, who has five assists in his last five games, has a goal and two assists.
Michael Raffl will miss tonight's game with an upper-body injury. Jordan Weal moved up to the third line at today's morning skate. Jori Lehtera will be back on the fourth line.
