DETROIT – Even when the puck does go into the net for the Detroit Red Wings these days, it doesn’t count.
Miika Kiprusoff made 40 saves, leading the Calgary Flames to a 3-0 victory over the slumping Red Wings on Friday night.
Detroit hasn’t scored in 153 minutes, 22 seconds. The Red Wings have been shut out in consecutive games for the first time since December 2001 and the first time at home since 1977. On Wednesday night, they lost 2-0 to Atlanta.
Detroit’s Dan Cleary twice got the puck past Kiprusoff but both goals were waved off.
Chris Osgood stopped 14 shots for Detroit. The Red Wings have lost five of their last six games and have lost four in a row at Joe Louis Arena for the first time in almost two years.
DUCKS 3, BLACKHAWKS 0: Teemu Selanne scored twice on the power play, defenseman Nick Boynton also connected with the man advantage and Jean-Sebastien Giguere posted his first shutout to help host Anaheim snap Chicago’s eight-game win streak.

DEVILS 2, BRUINS 1, SO: Jamie Langenbrunner and Zach Parise scored shootout goals to make goaltender Martin Brodeur a winner on the day he became the NHL’s all-time minutes leader in New Jersey’s win in Boston.
