Raleigh, N.C. — As disappointing as Tuesday’s loss for the Red Wings, this victory was satisfying and needed.
The Red Wings came into Raleigh Thursday and put together a much more credible and workmanlike effort in a 4-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes.
Frans Nielsen broke a 1-1 tie in the second period and Jonathan Ericsson made it a two-goal lead helping the Wings end a four-game winless streak.
Dylan Larkin ended the scoring with an empty net goal with 18 seconds left, his 15th goal, and stretching his point streak to a career-high 9 games.
