TORONTO — The Detroit Red Wings couldn’t overcome poor goaltending as they faced the top offense in the NHL.
Jimmy Howard gave up three goals on the first four shots he faced Wednesday at Air Canada Centre, and Petr Mrazek got beat on the first shot he saw. Detroit’s skaters played well as they attempted a rally, but the Wings came up short in a 6-3 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs.
“There were some kind of funny goals,” Wings coach Jeff Blashill said.
