Game Highlights


The game was marked by intense moments and strategic plays from both teams. The Chicago Blackhawks opened the scoring in the first period but were unable to maintain their lead as the game progressed.

Additionally, contributions came from Ryan Donato who also found the back of the net once during this matchup.


On defense and between the pipes for Chicago was Petr Mrazek who made 23 saves throughout the night but ultimately faced defeat as he let four past him before an empty-netter sealed their fate. Despite his efforts which included stopping all but one even-strength shot he faced out of 26 attempts, it wasn't enough to secure victory.


The Detroit Red Wings demonstrated effective teamwork and capitalized on their opportunities. Their powerplay unit managed to convert one out of four chances thanks to efficient puck movement and precise shooting which contributed significantly to their win. Patrick Kane stood out for Detroit with his forward play earning him star recognition alongside Lucas Raymond whose performance also earned accolades.
