Detroit − Filip Zadina picked a pretty good time to get his first goal of the season.
Playing in his first game since November, after suffering a lower-body injury, Zadina's third-period goal lifted the Red Wings to a 2-1 victory Thursday over Calgary.
Goaltender Ville Husso made 35 saves as the Wings also killed three Flames power plays, including two in the third period, preserving the lead.
But it was Zadina, who returned after a three-month stay on the injured list after blocking a shot, who provided the feel-good story.
"It's been a long time and I've been waiting for the chance to be on the ice with them (teammates)," Zadina said.
