Detroit - The Red Wings' three-game win streak came to end Tuesday.
Montreal used two Mike Hoffman goals and terrific penalty killing, along with a 2-1 shootout edge, to defeat the Red Wings 3-2.
Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki scored in the shootout for Montreal, while David Perron countered for the Wings.
The loss ended a three-game win streak for the Wings (7-3-3) while Montreal ended a three-game losing streak (6-6-1).
The Red Wings had a chance to close the game out in regulation time.
Montreal's Juraj Slafkovsky boarded Matt Luff at 14:28 in the third period, resulting in a five-minute Wings' power play and a game misconduct for Slafkovsky, last summer's No.
