Panthers GameDay at Red Wings: How to Watch, Lines, Goalies, Odds

After losing their first game of the new season on Monday night, the Florida Panthers are back at it — and back in the Atlantic Division — when they play the Red Wings tonight in Detroit.

Florida trailed 2-0 on Monday but rallied to tie the score midway through the third.

The Panthers lost two of three to the Red Wings last season.

FHN PREGAME READING

• The Panthers Parlay: Best bets for tonight’s game in Detroit.
• The Panthers placed Dmitry Kulikov on IR on Friday; Kulikov will miss five months after having surgery on his right shoulder on Wednesday morning.
• The Palm Beach Symphony turned the Panthers goal song into something a bit different.
• The Rangers now have an NHL record the Florida Panthers certainly did not want.

NOTES: PANTHERS @ RED WINGS

• With Kulikov out, Toby Bjornfot was called up from AHL Charlotte — and the Panthers claimed defenseman Donovan Sebrango off waivers from Ottawa. Noah Gregor has been temporarily taken off the roster for immigration.
• Anton Lundell plays in his 300th NHL game tonight.
• Starting Goalies: Sergei Bobrovsky goes for the Panthers; Cam Talbot starts for Detroit.
• How to Watch: The Panthers are on national TV tonight with TNT and truTv broadcasting. The game can be streamed on HBO Max. Florida will be back on local TV Thursday in New Jersey against the Devils.
• NHL Betting Odds: The Panthers are favorites on the money line (-145) at the local book. To win with the Panthers, a $145 bet pays $100.
