It will be a quick rematch for the Red Wings on Saturday night as they travel to Montreal to face the team they fell to 6-3 on Thursday.
The Red Wings led 2-1 entering the second period but the Canadiens would score five goals in the final two periods to put the result beyond any doubt.
Five Canadiens’ players had two points or more, including Brendan Gallagher, who had three points with two goals.
Anthony Mantha led the way for the Wings with two points.
Thursday was the Red Wings sixth consecutive defeat, which already ties their season-worst losing streak.
