Red Wings yearn for stronger net presence after St. Louis struggles

Denver — The Red Wings aren't winning many games on the road. They won't win many if they continue to play like they did Thursday in a 6-2 loss to the St. Louis Blues.

The Wings struggled in several areas.

Most disappointing was their inability to get to the Blues' net and create havoc i front of inexperienced goalie Charlie Lindgren.

Detroit Red Wings' Dylan Larkin (71) controls the puck un front of St. Louis Blues' Ryan O'Reilly (90) during the first period.

“We didn't play horribly,” said forward Robby Fabbri, who scored both Wings goals. “We gave up some things but we worked and sustained some pressure in the offensive zone.
