The Detroit Red Wings feasted on Pekka Rinne, pounding him with pucks to earn a third straight victory.
The penalty kill had a rough night with three goals allowed to the Nashville Predators, but the Wings’ offense held up for a 5-3 final tonight at Joe Louis Arena, setting up a nice little streak as the San Jose Sharks come to the Joe Saturday.
Justin Abdelkader, Drew Miller, Tomas Tatar and Gustav Nyquist scored as the Wings reached 43 shots on goal. Darren Helm scored into an empty net after two Predators were sent to the penalty box with 2:02 to play in regulation.
