Bad Road Trip

from Kevin Allen of Detroit Hockey Now,

The Detroit Red Wings finished a horrible road trip by losing a 2-1 overtime decision to the Arizona Coyotes. The Coyotes have the NHL’s worst record.

Disastrous Trip
The Detroit Red Wings came into the road trip with optimism and came out of it with a realization that they have a long way to go before they figure out how to win consistently.

They couldn’t grow, or hold, a 1-0 lead against the NHL’s last-place team. This is a team that is averaging 1.68 goals per game. The Red Wings allowed the Coyotes to tie the game on a third-period goal and win in overtime on Clayton Keller’s goal.

They were 0-3-1 on this road trip. They were outscored 17-8. The Red Wings are now 3-7-1 on the road this season.

“We’ve got to find a way to play some good hockey before Christmas,” Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin said.

About Abel to Yzerman

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
