from Ted Kulfan of the Detroit News,
There’s been a lot of losses this season — and the Red Wings will surely have more these last couple months — but this was a particular galling one.
Twice the Wings had leads in the third period, and for stretches Friday they outplayed the Western Conference-leading Calgary Flames, only to ultimately lose 6-4.
This was fun hockey, a throwback, wide-open game to an era of hockey played long ago.
But the Wings would have simply enjoyed to have won, with a lot less fireworks.
