Bruins at Red Wings

The Detroit Red Wings lost in overtime Wednesday at Joe Louis Arena, falling 3-2 to the Bruins when Frank Vatrano scored with 1:28 left in the extra period.

Between the 2005-06 and 2013-14 seasons, 77.3 percent of teams that were in the playoff picture as they sat down for Thanksgiving dinner remained there at season’s end, according to STATS.

“(Boston has) some injuries and there’s opportunity”, Ferraro said. He would try to make something against his former team to pull off a second upset.

“I think it’s a huge thing to have”, Detroit coach Jeff Blashill said.

The students also learned that the Red Wings players come from all around the globe, look different from one another, and speak many languages, but the Red Wings never make fun of each other for their differences. The Wings would kill it off, no small feat against the NHL’s best power play. Detroit started the pick up the pace and get into full gear against Boston’s big lines that had plenty of physical strength. But for whatever reason, a team’s place in the standings on the fourth Thursday in November typically says a great deal about its chances of playing for the Stanley Cup. Detroit outshot Boston 13-9 but the damage had already been done meaning Detroit would have to match their Original Six rivals. It was Datsyuk’s 300th career goal. Boston could not capitalize although they placed a lot of pressure on Petr Mrazek. Tomas Tatar hopped off the bench and got the puck.

The best news for the Bruins in the Detroit game was the youngsters made the decisive plays. They thrashed the Bruins shooting 11 on net while their opponents managed to put four on Mrazek. The jerseys have been met with mixed opinions so far by Red Wings fans.

The Oilers head into the Joe looking to snap out of their losing ways while the Wings look to recover after dropping their last game in overtime.

DK and the Big E. It sounds like the title for a 1970s TV cop show but it’s actually the new shutdown defensive pairing for the Detroit Red Wings. Darren Helm and Niklas Kronwall got the assists on the play.

The three stars of the game are Frank Vatrano who scored two goals. “EST 1926” is on the inside rear collar, “RED WINGS” is placed up one side of the front collar… just because they can do that now.

The Boston Bruins are steadily gaining ground in their division. Jonas Gustavsson who stopped 34 shots, and Tomas Tatar who had a goal in the game. Unfortunately neither he nor his team would be the winners of the game.

Miller tied it 2-2, with 1:44 left. Mrazek ranks third in the National Hockey League with a save percentage of.935.

It wasn’€™t all good for Vatrano, as he took a tripping penalty with just over five minutes to play, leaving the B’€™s shorthanded as they tried to come back from a one-goal deficit.
