from Ted Kulfan of the Detroit News,
The Red Wings road trip didn’t start the way they wanted it to, by any stretch.
Vancouver defeated the Wings 5-1 Tuesday as the Wings opened a quick three-games-in-four-days trip through western Canada.
The loss dropped the Wings to 3-3 on the season.
hrough the opening five games, there were stretches where the Red Wings’ didn’t play well, but not for lengthy periods of game.
But Tuesday, many facets of the Wings’ game simply weren’t good enough, despite Dylan Larkin opening the scoring 30 seconds into the game and getting the Wings going quickly.
