In a decisive victory, the Detroit Red Wings defeated the Nashville Predators 5-2, with Andrew Copp scoring twice and Alex Lyon making 37 saves. This win marked the second time Detroit has triumphed over Nashville this season, as the Predators remain winless at 0-5-0.

Steven Stamkos scored his first goal for Nashville, but it wasn't enough to change the team's fortunes. The Predators are experiencing their worst start since the 2002-03 season, despite significant offseason acquisitions.
