Florida Panthers – 5
Detroit Red Wings – 0
Jimmy Howard’s pursuit of two consecutive wins continues. After a weekend win, the Red Wings netminder was pulled after allowing three goals in the first two minutes Monday. Detroit had just one shot in the third in a complete team effort for Florida. Mark it down as another victory for goaltender Chris Driedger, too.
Three Stars
1. Chris Dreidger, FLA (29 saves)
2. Jonathan Huberdeau, FLA (2-1–3)
3. Mackenzie Weegar, FLA (1-3–4)
One the one hand, 5-0 sounds right. On the other, Jimmy Howard started three games in a row. This is the Mallrats equivalent of “THE KID.........IS BACK........ON THE ESCALATOR!” of the NHL.
