The Wings bested the NHL’s St. Louis Blues 5-3 before falling to the Columbus Blue Jackets last night 4-1. Focusing on the Blues, “The Mule” (Franzen) had a hat-trick when his empty-netter put the game away for good.

Meanwhile, the Pistons took care of the Cleveland Cavaliers Friday night at home 117-99. That same Cavs team went on to beat OKC last night.
