Friday night at Little Caesars Arena brings Detroit and Seattle together, both looking to steady the ship early in the season. Detroit's last three read W-L-L, capped by a 5-3 win over Ottawa, while Seattle arrives L-W-L after a 2-6 beating from Vegas. Each side has flashed upside and wobbled in the same week. The recent ledger tilts firmly toward the Wings.
