Panth’d: Wings drop 4-1 stinker in Sunrise
Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty ImagesWings leave town after a weekend jaunt over the backs of the Blue Jackets and head to Florida to take on a Panthers team who just lost Aaron Ekblad to an injury that I was told not to watch replays of and happily obliged.
It’s the last game of Fox Sports Detroit. Finally we’ll stop seeing the reminders of the name change (no we won’t).
Lineup notes: Ryan and Gagner out for Smith and Nielsen.
First Period
Ah let’s get settled in and watch some aaaaaaand we’re losing. Detroit ices off the opening faceoff. Florida steals in our zone off a Glendening faceoff win and Huberdeau gets the puck alone in front just 17 seconds in. 1-0 Panthers.
