The Detroit Red Wings are in the midst of a dramatic slump, losing again to the Arizona Coyotes, marking their second defeat in a week by a cumulative score of 8-1.
This streak has put a serious dent in their playoff hopes. The game began with a shorthanded goal by the Coyotes' Logan Cooley, reminiscent of a previous game's early setback.
Despite a brief equalizer from Lucas Raymond, the Red Wings couldn't keep up, and additional goals by Michael Carcone and Nick Bjugstad solidified Arizona's victory.
Frustrations boiled over among the fans at Little Caesars Arena, who booed the team's seventh straight loss and even chanted against Priority Waste, a sponsor, blaming it for the team's recent downturn.
