Dylan Larkin led the team in assists with 2 while Emmitt Finnie led the team in shots on net in that game with 4. John Gibson was the starting goalie in that game and he recorded the shutout as he allowed 0 goals on 21 shots with 21 saves and a 1.000 save percentage.

The Mammoth are entering this game with 62 points, a 29-23-4 record overall, and they are 16-8-2 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game off a win against the Vancouver Canucks in their last game, winning that one at home 6-2.

The current betting odds have the Mammoth listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Mammoth have looked good in their games this season with their 29-23-4 record overall which has them in the top half of their division in the West. They have looked great on home ice too with their 16-8-2 home record this season. Meanwhile, the Red Wings have looked really good in their games this season with their 33-18-6 record overall which has them right near the top of their division in the East. They have been a good road team too with their 15-8-4 road record this season. The Red Wings are off a 2-0 road win over the Avalanche in their last one and they were able to shut down the best team and best offense in the NHL on their own ice. As good as they looked in that win, the Red Wings haven't looked that great lately as they are only 5-3-2 in their last 10 games. That is going to be a really tough game to follow up with too, especially since the Mammoth have looked so much better at home this season and have been rolling lately. The Mammoth are off a 6-2 win over the Canucks in their last one and they are 7-3-0 in their last 10 games. They have also been scoring a lot of goals lately and they have a better offense than the Red Wings this season. That defense has also looked a lot better in their home games so look for them to shut down this Red Wings team that didn't score a lot in their win over the Avalanche. The best way to place a bet here is on the Mammoth to win this game.

“I thought it was outstanding. We had some legs, we were connected, we made some passes, we defended well. Just about everything that could get turned upside down [from Saturday] was, and we got to give the leadership group and the players a lot of credit for responding. [Colorado] can gain momentum real quick. The fans can get into the game, and we took them out of it real early and actually got some of the Red Wings fans into it.” - Todd McLellan after his team’s win against the Avalanche in their game on Monday.

“I think Schmaltz was really good everywhere. He was good defensively, stripping pucks, his body position was good. I liked his game a lot.” - Andre Tourigny after his team’s win against the Canucks in their game on Monday.
