For a team wanting to make an impression of being miserable to play against, the Detroit Red Wings flubbed their first attempt.
They didn’t create much offensively, skated ruts to the penalty box, and got pinned in the defensive zone in overtime. They took a point away from Thursday’s season opening loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets at Little Caesars Arena, but the overall performance disappointed.
