This will sting for the Red Wings, who made a valiant effort in the third period Friday after a slow start. But the Wings were chasing most of Friday's game in Raleigh and ultimately lost 4-2 to the red-hot Carolina Hurricanes.

The Wings (31-29-6) made a hard push for a rally in the third period, but it wasn't enough to avoid their seventh loss in regulation in their past eight games. Michael Rasmussen used his 10th goal of the season to get the Wings within a goal 2:53 into the third period,

Jack Roslovic had a goal and an assist and the Carolina Hurricanes won their sixth game in a row, 4-2 over the Detroit Red Wings 4-2.
