DETROIT – At 10:23 AM Local time Wednesday evening, the sequence of six defeats from Detroit Red Wings officially ended, while the horn has resounded on a cruel 3 to 3 victory over the Buffalo sabers. He would have finished earlier if he would not have stopped for a third land in a turn to the extracurricular with the result of the game which is no longer at hand, causing 73 minutes of penalty in every sense in the only third.
When the horn finally sounded, the Red Wings, or at least those of them who had not been dismissed early thanks to the end of game carnage, sank on the ice to congratulate the goalkeeper Petr Mrazek (23 stops on 26 shots) for his first victory In his first game in Detroit.
The result of Wednesday does not facilitate the remaining calendar, and it cannot compensate for the abandoned field in the classification during the slippage, but that is precisely what Detroit had to take from the evening match: the weight of the sequence of defeats on their back.
“We needed victory,” said Patrick Kane after the match. “No matter how it came. Obviously, it’s nice to put seven, but we needed victory tonight.”
According to coach Todd McLellan, Detroit had not played like a sound game like two nights earlier in an effort losing in Ottawa, praising the work of his team by attacking while suggesting that it had to be tightened defensively, before adding, “I remember that some of my mentors have said to never criticize a victory, especially when you have not won much in recent times. The greatest reason why the Red Wings reached seven and won the victory was Kane, who ended the evening with his fourth career match in five points (two goals and three assists).
Detroit underwent early jumping in the form of the opening goal of Tagus Thompson 7:38 in the night, a Mrazek mrazek should have done better and the one who came after Alex Debrincat seemed to score the first goal of the match so that he was excluded for the interference of the goalkeeper. Kane, back to his best orchestral, made sure that the beginning of a good omen is not transmitted with two assists, then a goal of playing authority, from downhill and wiring to a shot on Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen’s Glove then falling into a knee for a pump of the stacked fist which transmitted the despair of the circumstances of the Red Wings, before the end of the Red Wings period.
“I think that in my mind is called leadership,” said Kane’s performance McLellan. “This is called the experience: when you have the tool game he has, and you bring him a night when the team is quite desperate, and he delivers.”
