Red Wings 6 – Penguins 3 (F)
— Alex DeBrincat and Andrew Copp each scored twice and Ville Husso made 30 saves as the Detroit Red Wings (3-1, 4 pts) defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins (2-2, 4 pts) 6-3 on Wednesday night. The story of the game for Pittsburgh was once again little to no impact from their bottom tier/role players. Pittsburgh’s third pairing of P.O. Joseph – Chad Ruhwedel had a disastrous night, while the Penguins four games in are still waiting for a goal from a bottom-6 forward……..
