Detroit got goals from Darren Helm, Dylan Larkin, Frans Nielsen and Luke Glendening, but the Wings still lost their fifth straight game and have lost 17 of their past 19. It was his second game back after missing 10 consecutive contests due to a lower-body injury. It was just the second game Ekblad has missed in the past three years. Detroit extended its lead to 3-1 just 46 seconds into the second period on Nielsen’s short-handed goal. The rest of the period belonged to the Panthers, who scored three straight goals to take a 4-3 lead.
