Detroit Red Wings finally snapped their losing streak by triumphing over the Utah Hockey Club 5-1 in their inaugural matchup. The victory, their first in over a week, came after a rough start when Petr Mrazek exited the game early due to injury. Alex Lyon stepped in, making 16 saves and securing his first win since February. Key contributions came from Elmer Söderblom and Marco Kasper, who both scored crucial deflection goals. Despite only managing 14 shots, the Red Wings capitalized on their opportunities and improved their standing in the playoff race, now just three points shy of a wildcard spot.
