Detroit gets 3-1 win over Anaheim
(DETROIT) – The Anaheim Ducks dropped their heads on the bench and looked down at their skates, another defeat seemingly imminent. Gustav Nyquist broke a tie with 4:16 left and Darren Helm scored a little later, lifting the Detroit Red Wings over the Ducks 3-1 on Tuesday night to extend their franchise-record losing streak to 12 games. For the third straight setback, Anaheim went into the third period with a one-goal lead and failed to win. The Ducks' losing streak is the NHL's longest single-season skid since the Buffalo Sabres lost 14 games in a row four years ago. Anthony Mantha also scored for Detroit and Jimmy Howard finished with 23 saves for the Red Wings, who won two straight for the first time in more than a month. John Gibson stopped 22 shots for the Ducks, who haven't won since December 17. Prior to the skid, they had won 9 of 10. Anaheim's challenge to regroup might include playing without forwards Jakob Silfverberg and Ryan Kesler. Silfverberg exited in the first period after his left leg got tangled up with Detroit defenseman Mike Green along the boards. The next period, Kesler also left the game with a lower-body injury.
