Red Wings forward talks about the frustration of playing well but not getting the win after a 4-3 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Ted Kulfan
Toronto — They keep playing hard, the Red Wings do, they keep making opponents sweat and never make it easy.
But the Red Wings keep losing, too.
Saturday was typical of many games lately, the Red Wings playing hard, leading a good portion of the game, controlling the game — but ultimately losing to the talented Maple Leafs 4-3.
Nazem Kadri tapped in Patrick Marleau’s pass off a 2-on-1 rush past goalie Jimmy Howard for the Leafs Kadri’s 29th goal, snapping a 3-3 tie with 7:26 left.
