DETROIT -- Tomas Tatar broke out of a scoring slump.The Detroit Red Wings did, too.Tatar got his first career hat trick, helping Detroit beat the Anaheim Ducks 6-4 on Saturday night to get a desperately needed win with a breakout offensive performance.Its perfect timing, he said.Tatar got his third goal early in the third period, putting the puck on both sides of his stick before flipping it over John Gibson.Detroit scored more goals (four) in the first two periods than it totaled over its previous four games -- all home losses -- and finished with a season scoring high.We knew we werent good enough the last four games, Tatar said.Detroit has needed Tatar to play better, too.The Slovak winger almost matched the number of goals (four) he scored in his first 31 games of the season.

Cam Fowler gave them another two-goal lead early in the second.Tatar, though, pulled Detroit within a goal for the second time, and quickly the Red Wings figured out a way to score.A little luck helped.Tatar shot the puck and it went off the left skate of Fowler, caromed off the end boards and went off the back of Berniers left leg and into the net.Its a tough building when youre not used to those bounces, Bernier said.Detroits Dylan Larkin went to the front of the net and into the crease and was rewarded with a tying goal midway through the second period that stood after a video review and challenge by Carlyle.I thought I was in good position and had it, Bernier said. It trickled in.Rickard Rakell scored his second goal of the game less than two minutes later, pulling Anaheim within a goal.The Red Wings restored their two-goal lead midway through the third when Frans Nielsen scored off a rebound in front of the net.Its a game of confidence, Nielsen said.Game notesMrazek wore a holiday-themed mask, featuring Buddy from Will Ferrells movie Elf. ...
