Boston — Down by two goals in the first minute, and 4-2 at 3:27 of the second period, the Red Wings could have gone along to get along, in early March, with the playoffs long a dwindling dream.
Not these Wings.
Disappointing season or not, new goalie getting ambushed and not playing well or not, they would not comply.
The Red Wings tied it late in regulation Tuesday on a goal by the underused Martin Frk, but lost 6-5 in overtime, when Brad Marchand scored his third goal of the game.
Jeff Blashill said he would play Jared Coreau against the Bruins, Coreau’s first NHL action of the season, after nearly three weeks off since his last start for Grand Rapids.
