Sam Gagner quickly adjusting to life as a Red Wing

Detroit — Sam Gagner has been traded before, so this wasn’t anything new.

The Red Wings’ are his sixth team, actually, but only the second time Gagner has been moved during the season.

Still, the veteran forward knows how to adjust to a new team, and adapt.

And he’s done it quickly with the Wings, including scoring a goal in Saturday’s loss in Ottawa.

Gagner scored a power-play goal, deflecting Filip Hronek’s point shot, and helping the Wings salvage a point in the 4-3 shootout loss.
