Columbus, Ohio — The Red Wings didn't start this four-game trip the way they wanted to at all.
After taking the lead, the Wings allowed three Columbus goals in 4 minutes 15 seconds and lost to the Columbus Blue Jackets, 5-3.
Zach Werenski (Grosse Pointe/Michigan), scoring at 18 minutes, 41 seconds of the third period, broke the tie, then Alexandre Texier scored into an empty net to cap the scoring.
Lucas Raymond gave the Wings a 3-2 lead at 13:31, the rookie's seventh goal, but Columbus roared back, with rookie Yegor Chinakhov tying the score with his first NHL goal at 15:42, on a breakaway.
