⋅BOX SCORE
ABOUT LAST NIGHT:Elmer Söderblom scores in NHL debut as Red Wings blank Canadiens, 3-0, in opener
Game notes: Newcomer Ville Husso got the start Friday night in the Wings’ 3-0 win over the Canadiens, which means it’s Alex Nedeljkovic’s turn in net. The 26-year-old posted a 3.31 GAA and .901 save percentage last season in his first turn with the Wings; that included a 17-save shutout of the Devils in Newark on April 24. That game also included goals from Oskar Sundqvist and Michael Rasmussen (plus an assist from Sundqvist on the other goal), who are now linemates with Friday’s man of the match, 6-foot-8 rookie Elmer Söderblom.
The Devils are still working on their rebuild, but there’s a few familiar faces, such as Jack Hughes (the middle Hughes brother who played for the USNDTP in Plymouth) and Tomas Tatar, who had a minus-1 rating after the Devils lost to the Flyers, 5-2, on Thursday night.
After their back-to-back, the Wings return home for a visit from former assistant coach Todd McLellan and his L.A. Kings, while the Devils get a visit from the other SoCal team, the Anaheim Ducks, on Tuesday.
