Lucas Raymond is first in assists (39) and points (56) so far for the Red Wings.
Connor Hellebuyck is expected to get the nod for the Jets, who are 5-2-3 in their previous 10 games. However, Winnipeg suffered a shootout loss to the Florida Panthers in its last time on the ice. Mark Scheifele leads the club in goals (25), assists (36), and points (61).
