Preview: Red Wings Host Golden Knights for the celebration for St. Patrick’s Day on Sunday afternoon

April 17th is the final of the regular season in Detroit, and the players know that in the coming weeks they have to collect as many points as possible to give themselves the best possible chance of securing a Stanley Cup playoffs. In the Matinee on Sunday, the Red Wings were only four points behind the New York Rangers for second place in the Eastern Conference.

“Everyone in this changing room knows what we are capable of,” said Lucas Raymond. “We have a lot of faith in ourselves. There are still many games to play and our goal remains the same. We will do everything we can to press it. “

Vegas classified first place in the Pacific Division of the Western Conference on Saturday. Jack Eichel leads the Golden Knights with 80 points (21 goals, 59 templates) and drives an eight-game point strip on Sunday after he has illuminated the lamp in Buffalo. Next are Mark Stone (17-41-58) and Tomas Hertl (27-28-55) behind Eichel in the club’s goal.

The goalkeeper Adin Hill scored 34 parades for Vegas on Saturday.

“Our attempt to win (on Sunday) must be more consistent than (on Friday),” said Red Wings head coach, Todd McLellan. “The game may be a little different. (Vegas) they play a little differently (than Carolina), but if we are not for 60, it does not matter which momentum or preparation we talk about. This is not the time of the year to play two periods. It is time to fight three. “
