Red Wings end season with victory, as coach Jeff Blashill's future becomes main topic

The Red Wings didn't just show up for the final game of the regular season.

They went into New Jersey and came out with a spirited victory, as Pius Suter scored his 15th goal at 10 minutes 33 seconds of the third period, sending the Wings to a 5-3 victory.

Suter's shot barely crossed the line past Devils goaltender Mackenzie Blackwood, video replay finally determined it was a legal goal, giving the Wings their fourth lead of the evening.

Tyler Bertuzzi added an empty-net goal, his 30th, with 10 seconds remaining.

Getting his first start of the season, goaltender Magnus Hellberg stopped 20 shots to earn the victory.
