Should Have Won But Didn’t

from Ted Kulfan of the Detroit News,

This was one, ultimately, the Red Wings should have had, should have completed to earn a victory....

The Wings, appropriately, felt as they let an important point in the standings slip away.

“We played a pretty good game, we gave them a hard game,” said Gustav Nyquist, who had two goals. “A shootout, we had a 4-on-3 chance (power play) in overtime, and shootouts are a coin flip, it can go either way.

“We should have finished this one off.”

What also hurt for the Wings, was a hand injury to defenseman Danny DeKeyser that will keep the defenseman out for “multiple weeks,” coach Jeff Blashill said.
