Detroit Red Wings toy with Montreal Canadiens, 5-0; fourth victory in five games

MONTREAL — Rack them up for the Detroit Red Wings, whose good habits just won them their fourth game in five outings.

They had fun Tuesday at Centre Bell, playing a Montreal Canadiens team decimated by injuries and spinning an early lead to a 5-0 victory. Even with as much winning as the Wings have done of late, they're still among the 11 worst teams in standings, keeping them in the running to be in the draft lottery for the first overall pick.

Marco Kasper, the No. 8 pick from 2022, missed the game with a lower-body injury, but got to watch David Perron score twice and set up Lucas Raymond's goal.
