Detroit — The injuries are beginning to mount for the Red Wings, and one wonders if the losses will, too.
The shorthanded Wings fell behind early Friday, rallied to tie, but ultimately fell 4-2 to the Ottawa Senators.
Ottawa’s Mark Stone swept in a loose puck underneath goaltender Jimmy Howard at 7:08 of the third period, breaking a 2-2 tie.
Howard made the initial save on defenseman Stefan Elliott, but the puck squeezed through him and sat uncovered underneath Howard’s body.
Stone came in untouched from the side and slammed the puck into the open net for his 16th goal.
