Red Wings Vs. Capitals: Battle Of The Undefeateds In Washington

Oct 22, 2011 - The Detroit Red Wings got almost a week off before Friday night's game against the winless Columbus Blue Jackets. They don't have any time to rest before Saturday night's game against the undefeated Washington Capitals, though. The Red Wings headed to Washington D.C. shortly after the win over the Blue Jackets, and they are preparing for their toughest test of the young NHL season.

After a couple weeks of play, only two teams in the NHL have yet to lose a game: the Red Wings and Capitals. Detroit is 5-0-0 and Washington is 6-0-0. The two teams will put their perfect records on the line Saturday night as Detroit looks to go for its best start since 1972-73. Here's a look at the lineup the Red Wings have put together for this game:

Forwards

Henrik Zetterberg - Pavel Datsyuk - Dan Cleary

Valtteri Filppula - Johan Franzen - Jiri Hudler

Justin Abdelkader - Darren Helm - Todd Bertuzzi

Fabian Brunnstrom - Cory Emmerton - Patrick Eaves

Defenseman

Nicklas Lidstrom - Ian White

Niklas Kronwall - Brad Stuart

Jonathan Ericsson - Jakub Kindl

Starting Goalie

Ty Conklin

This game will serve as Brunnstrom's Red Wings debut, his 100th career NHL game and his first NHL game in more than 18 months. In his one career game against the Capitals, he scored a goal, so hopefully he'll add another one on Saturday night.
