Detroit Red Wings fall to Senators, 4-2, on two third-period goals

The NHL's worst road team came to town but the Detroit Red Wings didn't have enough firepower to beat them.

The Wings fell to the Ottawa Senators, 4-2, on Friday. The Senators scored twice in the third period to break a 2-all tie, including an empty-netter.

Ottawa had collected a league-low seven points on the road prior to handing the Wings their third loss in four games.

Luke Glendening and Dylan Larkin scored for Detroit, while Jimmy Howard made 27 saves. Chris Tierney scored two goals for Ottawa.

It was a rough day for the Wings, who announced earlier in the day that defenseman Mike Green would miss 3-5 weeks with a lower-body injury.
