Wings snap losing streak against Boston with 5-3 win

It’s a Tuesday night Wings/Bruins matchup in April. Boston is resting stars because they’re getting ready for the playoffs. Detroit is hoping to avoid giving up five goals.

First Period

Michael Rasmussen starts the game really well, but not well enough to get the Red Wings on the board first. A good rush by Tyler Bertuzzi ends up with a rush heading the other way where Erik Haula comes in as an uncovered trailer and snaps a shot top shelf to make it 1-0 Bruins.

Detroit answered by almost giving up another immediately and then generally getting outplayed.
