Red Wings head coach Todd McLellan opened up about a shift in team mentality following a crushing loss to the Stars.

In his first start since Jan. 7, but his second game in two days, goalie Alex Lyon gave up 3 first-period goals in the Detroit Red Wings' 4-1 loss.

That opener set an unfortunate trend for Detroit's evening, with Dallas' best offense seeming to come always off of opportunities the Red Wings brought upon themselves. The Stars went up 2–0 on the power play eight minutes later after Detroit had multiple chances to clear the zone and failed to do so.
