After Tuesday’s loss to San Jose, the Detroit Red Wings got what they were looking for Thursday night in the first game of a four-game road trip.

Cam Talbot made 41 saves and the Detroit Red Wings scored three power-play goals in a 5-2 win over the Florida Panthers on Thursday night in Sunrise, Fla.

Kent Johnson had a goal and an assist and Adam Fantilli scored a goal to stretch his point streak to eight games. Van Riemsdyk's second was an empty-netter with 2:01 remaining. Elvis Merzlikins made 18 saves as the Blue Jackets improved to 16-5-3 at home.

A familiar problem plagued the Florida Panthers once again on Thursday night, and it cost them dearly. Florida once again struggled to stay out of the penalty box, this time doing it against a Detroit Red Wings team that has been on fire when given a man advantage.
