Red Wings fall behind early, can't catch Chicago in 8-5 loss

Detroit — The Red Wings' rivalry with the Chicago Blackhawks isn't nearly what it used to be.

But the Blackhawks earned a measure of revenge Wednesday in a 8-5 victory over the Red Wings at Little Caesars Arena.

The Wings (18-19-6) saw their winless streak get stretched to three games, and losses in seven of their last nine games.

The Wings blasted Chicago 6-3 in October, in a game that was more one-sided than the score indicated.

In the only other game these teams will play this season, it was Chicago that was the better team, but just barely.
