Slumping Red Wings limp into Colorado to face Avalanche

Jan 9, 2007 - 3:23 PM Detroit (25-12-5) at Colorado (21-18-2) 9:00 pm EST

DENVER (Ticker) -- The slumping Detroit Red Wings probably cannot wait to get back home.

The Red Wings play the fourth contest of their five-game road trip Tuesday when they visit the Colorado Avalanche.

Detroit has dropped each of the first three games of its road trip, including a 4-2 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday. Tomas Holmstrom and Mikael Samuelsson tallied for the Red Wings, who have been outscored, 17-8, during their skid.

Samuelsson, who has 11 goals this season, has tallied in two straight games. He scored in Detroit's 4-2 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday.

Despite losing his last two games - a span in which he has surrendered an uncharacteristic 12 goals - goaltender Dominik Hasek has been a star for Detroit this season. His 2.01 goals-against average is tops in the NHL while he is second in shutouts with five.

The Avalanche have been playing well lately in winning three straight games.

Colorado's latest win was a 2-1 triumph over the Minnesota Wild on Saturday. Milan Hejduk scored the decisive goal when he tallied in the fourth round of the shootout.

Hejduk has a three-game points streak in which he has two goals and an assist. Prior to his streak, he was scoreless in four games.
