The Red Wings (24-25-6) were unable to win back-to-back games after a 4-3 victory over Carolina on Tuesday. After a scoreless opening period, the Lightning dominated the second period, outshooting the Red Wings 19-6, but the teams traded goals. He leads the Red Wings and NHL rookies with 36 assists.

The Red Wings (24-24-6) had dropped two in a row, including a 10-7 debacle against Toronto on Saturday. Carter Rowney and Michael Rasmussen each scored his second goal in as many games for the Red Wings. Rowney tied it at 1-1 at 12:00 of the second period with his second goal in as many games and fourth of the season.

Mitchell Marner had four goals and two assists, including a natural hat trick during the first 9:19 of the second period, and the Toronto Maple Leafs withstood a third-period rally to down the Detroit Red Wings 10-7.

Joe Veleno has been a fixture in the Detroit Red Wings’ lineup since mid-December, playing in the past 22 games. If Blashill opts to insert Rowney into the fourth-line center spot, between Givani Smith and Sam Gagner, the Red Wings might opt to keep Veleno in the AHL for now. Veleno, 22, has four goals and seven points in 35 games with Detroit, averaging 12:15 in ice time. However, if Veleno stays in Grand Rapids he’ll log more ice time in all situations, which could further aid his development. “Makes good reads in chaos, which to be a better defensive team you need that,” Blashill said.

Connor Hellebuyck made 33 saves for his second shutout of the season and Andrew Copp scored twice in the Winnipeg Jets’ 3-0 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday night.

Lindstrom committed a turnover trying to make a cross-ice pass in the offensive zone.

Joe Veleno’s third stint with the Detroit Red Wings could be an extended stay and a chance to establish himself in the NHL. The Red Wings recalled Veleno from the Grand Rapids Griffins and placed Mitchell Stephens on injured reserve Monday, ahead of tonight’s game against the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena (7 p.m., Bally Sports Detroit Plus). The Red Wings (8-6-2) are 4-1-0 in their past five. “If he chooses either of the other routes (including surgery), he’s going to have to take significant time off. So, we’ll see.”More: Red Wings ride momentum into four-game trip

The Detroit Red Wings signed another forward this week in what is clearly a depth pickup before training camp starts.

The Detroit Red Wings, needing depth at center and another right-shooting forward, signed Carter Rowney to a one-year contract. Rowney, 32, was limited to 19 games last season with Anaheim (no goals, six assists) due to a knee injury that ended his season on Feb. 22. He has 20 goals and 57 points in 223 games over five seasons, including two years in Pittsburgh. He appeared in 20 playoff games as a rookie in 2017 during the Penguins’ Stanley Cup championship run.
