The first road trip of this NHL regular season has begun badly for the Red Wings.
Chicago forward Pius Suter scored his first two NHL goals in the first period — and completed the hat trick in the third period — sparking the Blackhawks to a 6-2 victory Sunday over the Red Wings and sweeping the two-game series.
Tyler Bertuzzi scored both goals for the Wings, both on the power play.
As well as the Wings looked at times during the season-opening home stand — it was just the opposite in Chicago.
"It wasn't the hockey we played at home," forward Dylan Larkin said.
