Detroit began a three-game trek Tuesday with a 5-0 rout of the Columbus Blue Jackets. The decisive victory came two days after the Red Wings dropped a 4-1 decision in Sundays home test versus the Montreal Canadiens. The Red Wings received a 28-save performance from Jimmy Howard, who picked up his first shutout of the season. Tomas Tatar and Tomas Jurco each posted a goal and an assist while Gustav Nyquist, Riley Sheahan and Darren Helm all scored for the Red Wings, who have won three of their last five. We needed this game after that tough loss to Montreal, said Jurco. We talked about tightening up defensively and getting more pucks on net and things worked out well.

The victory pushed the Jets over the .500 mark at home, giving them a 4-3-1 record at MTS Centre. Michael Frolik scored a third-period goal and collected an assist to help Winnipeg down the Devils. Mathieu Perreault and Mark Scheifele scored 1:44 apart in the second period and Michael Hutchinson stopped 21 shots for the Jets, who were coming off a 2-2-1 road trip. The Jets, however, went 0-for-5 on the power play and the club is ranked 29th in the league on the man advantage. Winnipeg has converted just 9 percent (6- of-67) of its power-play opportunities.
