Red Wings Boosts Period In Detroit

Hockey Betting Lines

But by then it was too late for the Senators, who dropped their second consecutive game.

 

Ottawa's Zack Smith lit the lamp just 1:42 into the game, but the Habs soon evened the contest. With Tomas Plekanec in the penalty box for tripping, Eller fought for control of a loose puck in the neutral zone, used his size to hold off Senators defenseman Erik Karlsson as he approached the left circle, then ripped a shot to the far side of the net. The puck flew past Anderson's glove, bounced off the post and went in.

 

Jason Spezza scored Ottawa's second goal less than a minute after Subban tallied, but the Senators never caught up. Erik Cole netted a power-play marker late in the final period to finish the rout.

 

Game Notes

 

It was Detroit's 11th straight home victory. The Red Wings haven't tasted defeat at Joe Louis Arena since November 3, 4-1 against Calgary.

 

Matt D'Agostini and Alexander Steen lit the lamp for St. Louis, which won its previous two games. Brian Elliott also made 29 saves for the Blues, who had a much different result at Joe Louis Arena than the last time they visited the Motor City.

 

Kronwall moved the Red Wings ahead with a successful wrister from the left point as the puck just sneaked inside the left post at 12:15.

 

The Blues struck first on the power play 6:51 into the opening period. With Darren Helm serving a penalty for holding the stick, Kevin Shattenkirk sent a shot from the high slot toward the net and D'Agostini was in front to deflect it by Howard.

 

St. Louis nearly scored in the final minute of the first period, but Lidstrom knocked the bouncing disc in the crease away and finally under Howard.

 

Howard turned aside a 3-on-1 opportunity with under nine minutes left in the second, but the Blues grabbed a 2-0 lead on the power play at 13:08 of the stanza when Steen put in a rebound of a Jason Arnott chance that had gotten behind the Detroit netminder.
