WHAT A RUN: The Bruce Martyn advice that spurred Paul Woods to 3,000 games on Red Wings radio
LAST TIME OUT:Red Wings give up 3 unanswered goals in 4-3 OT loss to Blackhawks
Game notes: The Wings, who have yet to lose in regulation, let a golden opportunity for a win slip through their fingers Friday with a loss to the Chicago Blackhawks. Not only was it the Wings' second straight overtime defeat, but they led the Hawks by two entering the third period.
The Ducks beat the Seattle Kraken opening night but have not won since. Some nights the offense has failed them —they allowed seven then six goals in back-to-back games this season, and then scored two goals then one goal in the next two after.
After tonight, the Wings have one day off before a home game Tuesday vs. the New Jersey Devils. The Ducks get a couple of days off to travel home for a Wednesday night game vs. the Tampa Bay Lightning.
