The Panthers and Red Wings are off to fast starts heading into their matchup Wednesday night.

Florida (3-1) is beginning its quest for a vaunted three-peat, powered by goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky. The veteran just earned the NHL's third Star of the Week honors after going 3-0 with a 1.67 goals-against-average in the opening week.

Brad Marchand and Anton Lundell are tied for the team lead with four points apiece, stepping up amid injuries to Brady Tkachuk and Sasha Barkov.

Detroit (2-1) just took back-to-back games against the Maple Leafs with Patrick Kane (4 points) and Alex DeBrincat (4 points) emerging as early-season standouts.

Surprisingly, the Red Wings took two of three head-to-head matchups with the Panthers last season. We'll see what this year has in store beginning Wednesday.
