Detroit dropped a home game to the last-place Predators Wednesday, leaving coach Todd McLellan repeating himself.

Pregame analysis and predictions of the Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Detroit Red Wings NHL game to be played on November 28, 2025 on ESPN.

DETROIT – Three players have accounted for 31 of the Detroit Red Wings’ 67 goals. That’s 46 percent of their offense. They could assemble three full lines of forwards who are struggling to score. Secondary scoring has been virtually non-existent, and that must change for this team to get anywhere.

The problem was, the Red Wings still had a familiar undoing. Early defensive mistakes derailed an otherwise strong performance from the Red Wings, dooming them to a loss and knocking them out of first place in the Atlantic Division. Here’s what stood out.

Almost two days after the fact, Lucas Raymond is over the unsuspecting hit delivered by New Jersey's Jonas Siegenthaler in Monday's game that left Raymond momentarily dazed. It also contributed to a post-game dust-up between the teams that definitely showed some hard feelings on both sides, after a game with a lot of ill will to it.

Netminder Cam Talbot turned aside 21 shots for Detroit (13-10-1; 27 points), which dropped its second game in a row. Behind 24 saves from goalie Justus Annunen, Nashville (7-12-4; 18 points) snapped a three-game losing streak.
