But that game is the last Saturday of next month. And in fact, we've already had the last Saturday of this month as tomorrow, of course, is November 1st. And we will have Michigan versus Purdue at 7 o'clock at Michigan Stadium. We get rolling at 3 p.m. with the chap on site fuel and counting on a kickoff here on the big 1050 WTK. And to help you get ready for that game tomorrow coming up in just a little bit, we're going to go behind enemy lines with Alejandro Zaniga and get a preview from the Purdue side of things about the boiler makers. And then we'll get to our OT sessions, OT with Alborges, OT with Vance Bedford. That's all coming up in the 7 o'clock hour. And then John Eubacon joins us for the 9 o'clock hour here

on this Halloween edition of the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050WTK online at the big 1050.com.

It's the last of your opportunities to win passes inside.

The Bud Light Fitness Lounge are coming up in just a little bit and throughout the course of the show this morning.

Late last night, if you missed it, late last night. It was a late one for the Red Wings as they start their West Coast swing. And they won in a shootout over the Kings. And so Wings get the win. Now, they were actually trailing early on. They gave up a shorthanded goal in the second period, but goals by Alex DeBrincat on the power play. And then Marco Casper on the power play, just over two minutes apart, maybe just under two and a half minutes apart. Took a one-nothing deficit and made it a two-one lead for the wings. And then in the third period, Alex DeBrinke, excuse me, Marco Casper scored his second goal of a game.

And De Brinke picks up his second point.

He had one of the assists on the goal.

And then it was two goals late by the Kings that forced overtime.

The wings actually, it looked like the wings gave up a goal in overtime.

It looked like the Kings had scored in OT, but the goal was reviewed. It was overturned. And then the wings win in a shootout. The Lucas Raymond was the only player in the shootout to score a goal. So the wings get the win. They're now eight and three on the season. Their West Coast swing continues tonight. They're in Anaheim to face the ducks at 10 o'clock Eastern time.

That game is on 1290 W.W.

Sunday, they'll be in San Jose to face the sharks.

Tuesday, they'll be in Vegas to face the Golden Knights before they come home.
