Tomorrow night will be an important game for the Detroit Red Wings, as they will be taking on the Washington Capitals, who had recently taken the 2nd wildcard spot in the East, after winning 2 straight.
This means the Red Wings will have to overcome a slight hump to gain that ground again, after losing a game to the Nashville Predators on Saturday.
This will be a critical game for the Wings, and in the meantime, they're busy making roster moves.
They have sent forward Jonatan Berggren to the AHL and the Grand Rapid Griffins, which means he won't see NHL action again this season unless any injuries arise.
