Red Wings sapped of energy, blanked in final road game, 2-0, at Ottawa

OTTAWA -- The Detroit Red Wings started well, but then played like a team with nothing much left.

The Wings lost tonight at Canadian Tire Centre, 2-0, to the Ottawa Senators, who are vying for home ice advantage when the playoffs start next week. The Wings will count down their season with two more games, both at home as all they have left to do is say farewell to Joe Louis Arena before heading into a long off-season.

The Wings tried to overturn a sluggish second period that left them trailing by two goals going into the third period.
