Boston — It had to happen eventually — the Red Wings finally lost to the Boston Bruins.
Sure the Bruins entered Saturday’s game with the most points in the NHL (now with 84), and had All-Stars and league leaders sprinkled throughout their lineup.
The Red Wings had beaten them five straight times. Until Saturday’s 4-1 loss to Boston, that is.
The Wings held a 1-0 lead after one period — on Darren Helm’s shorthanded goal, putting back his own rebound off a 2-on-1 rush — and goaltender Jonathan Bernier was looking impenetrable.
