Here’s the stats for the game.

The Red Wings just haven’t been able to gain any kind of traction in over a month now. The last time Detroit won more than two games in a row was on Nov. 25, when its winning streak won four games. The Red Wings are still in the playoff hunt, but they lost a lot of ground in December.

Just behind the Canucks.  Ouch.

Also, apparently the NHL is going to start announcing the first All-Star Game participant from each team at some point today. Stay tuned for that.
