WATCH Lightning vs. Red Wings Stanley Cup Playoffs Live Stream Online, 'Super 16' Rankings: Listen To Free NHL Coverage 2015

It's finally that time of year - the Stanley Cup playoffs are here!

The Tampa Bay Lightning battle it out on the ice against the Detroit Red Wings as part of the 2015 Stanley Cup playoffs on Monday, April 27 at 7:00 p.m. EST at the Joe Louis Arena in Michigan. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Monday night hockey game online and catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

Heading into the NHL playoff season, ESPN.com reporter Scott Burnside ranked the "Super 16" teams earlier this month:

Lightning (6): "This was our consensus pick to come out of the Eastern Conference. I'm OK with that; in fact, in my grid, I have Tampa Bay and Washington in the Eastern Conference final. If Ben Bishop delivers the goods and the Bolts' recently injured blueliners are able to contribute in a meaningful way, this team will be a handful."

Current winning record, 2-3.

Red Wings (15): "I'll say first that the Red Wings might be the surprise of the playoffs, and I will refer back to this entry if that comes to pass. Maybe Petr Mrazek will become The Man in goal the Motor City, and Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk will stay healthy, and it will be like 2008 and 2009 all over again. More likely, though, the Wings will get waxed by Tampa and justify this ranking."

Current winning record, 3-2.

The game will be broadcasted live on local channels CNBC, CBC, FSDT, FSFL, and TVA, but fans can also listen in on the radio at 620 WDAE, WGN, 97.1 The Ticket, and CJBK.
