Detroit Red Wings head coach Derek Lalonde revealed he strayed from the norm following Thursday’s 6-5 overtime loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins at PPG Paints Arena.
“The guys did a great job,” Lalonde said. “I don’t usually address the guys after a game, but I had to address them after this simply because that was a huge point. To be down with seven minutes left, two goals on the road, everything that had happened…I give our guys a ton of credit for battling, staying in it and getting a point. There’s still a path there because of that point.”
