In Chicago, Illinois the Detroit Red Wings (32-14-10) who look to break their 3 game loosing streak as they go on their first of six games on the road to west on their west coast swing. As they Square off against an always tough old rivalry team the Chicago Blackhawks (35-19-5).
First Period its the Blackhawks who are pressuring as they try to get on the board first in this first period raking up the shots on net. Which they lead in a huge advantage of 17-6 in that first period. But none are able to find the back of the net as we end the first period.
Into the Second its Detroit who gets on the board firs as Tomas Tatar scores his 24th of the season from a nice set up by Darren Helm. But the Wings don't gain momentum for long as Chicago's Brandon Sadd Scores just 40 seconds later to tie this game back at 1's to end the second.
To the Third as the period winds down the speedster Darren Helm is able to break free and regain the Detroit lead with his 13th of the year to put the Wings up 2-1. But again not for long as less then a minute later its Kris Versteeg who notches his 11th of the year to tie the game back up a 2 and force this game into overtime.
In overtime neither team is able to get anywhere resulting in this game to go into a shootout. Where with a miss by Paval Datsyuk and a goal by Jonathan Toews pressure is on Detroit to tie it up. Which with their next shooter they due as Gustav Nyquist is able to get his attempt into the back of the net. But for Chicago they aren't lucky enough to regain the lead and put pressure on Detroit as sniper Patrick Kane misses. Then third round Tomas Tatar who scored the first goal of the game is sent out to be the next shooter for Detroit and he capitalizes putting all the pressure on Blackhawk forward Patrick Sharp to score or else it is a Detroit victory. Sharp goes dekes ..... but can't seem to get it past Howard a the Red Wings hold on to this one and snap their losing streak at 3 games as they beat the Chicago Blackhawks 3-2 final score in a shootout.
