Description: Detroit left wing Justin Abdelkader scored twice Saturday in a 5-2 win over Vancouver. | Insight: Abdelkader (three goals, one assist in 29 games) has had a quiet season thus far and we wouldn't expect many games like this going forward. It's worth noting that the Red Wings have done extremely well against the Canucks this season, averaging 6.5 goals per game in their two meetings in 2013. | | |
