Red Wings play 'stupid hockey' to cough up lead in 4-2 drubbing by Blackhawks

Chicago — Not surprisingly the Red Wings did it again.

They lost, really, they did, 4-2, Sunday to the Chicago Blackhawks — who like the Red Wings, hardly look like the dynasty of earlier this decade.

But it was how the Red Wings lost that has become so familiar.

Leading 2-0 — on Filip Zadina (power play) and Luke Glendening's goals — the Red Wings allowed two goals in a matter of 45 seconds (Dylan Strome and Dylan Sikura) late in the second period, enabling the Blackhawks to get back in the game.

Once again, it was the Wings’ turning the puck over, giving Chicago prime scoring opportunities — and sure enough, the Blackhawks cashed in.
