DETROIT -- A pair of struggling teams coming off one-goal losses meet Sunday when the Detroit Red Wings host the Calgary Flames at Joe Louis Arena.The Red Wings (8-9-1) lost 1-0 to the Capitals in Washington on Friday night while the Flames (7-11-1) dropped a 3-2 decision to the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday night in Calgary.Detroit is 2-7-1 in its past 10 games.I think its only human to get a little frustrated, Red Wings captain Henrik Zetterberg told www.mlive.com. I think its easy to get frustrated when youre doing good things, when you correct mistakes, youre playing better and you dont get points. But weve got to see the positive in it, too, and stay with it. Eventually we will get our wins.Detroit seemed to play well enough to win in its last two games, but has nothing to show for it.The Red Wings lost 4-3 to the Tampa Bay Lightning at Joe Louis Arena on Tuesday on Nikita Kucherovs goal with 1:10 left. On Friday, Washingtons Jay Beagle scored the only goal of the game with 5:11 to play.These are the ones you want to win, or least get to overtime and get a point and have a chance for the two, Zetterberg said after Friday nights game. Leaving here with nothing is hard but weve got to try to see the positive in what we did better than before and keep going from there.The 10-game slide coincides with the absence of left winger Thomas Vanek, who missed the past 11 games with a hip strain.He is expected to return to the lineup on Sunday.I think a lot of the guys will feel some of the weight come off their shoulders with him back in the lineup, goalie Jimmy Howard said. Hes really good around the net, hes really good at deflections, little re-directions.Before Vanek was injured, he led the team with four goals and eight points in seven games. Detroit was 3-7-1 without him, only averaged 1.64 goals per game, were shut out three times and only 5-for-40 on the power play.Hes a big player for us, Justin Abdelkader said. Obviously, he got off to that great start. It was tough to see him go down with injury. Hell come in and bring a veteran presence. Hes really strong on the puck and hes got a great shot.Center Darren Helm, one of Vaneks linemates, is out 6-to-8 weeks after suffering a dislocated shoulder against Tampa Bay on Tuesday.The Flames have injury issues of their own.Star forward Johnny Gaudreau will also miss 6-to-8 weeks because of a broken finger on his right hand suffered in the 1-0 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday.A slash by Eric Staal caused the injury and Calgary said that Gaudreau was slashed 11 times in the game without a penalty call.There are tactics with good players, but when you chop a guy in the hand theres a rule that says you cant do that, Flames general manager Brad Treliving told the Calgary Herald. Were not naive -- do we whack guys, too? Probably. But the frustration comes when that turns into a player being out for an extended period of time.

Scott Kazmir allowed four hits in seven shutout innings, Michael Brantley hit a two-run homer in a three-run first inning and the Indians maintained their hold on an AL wild-card spot with a 4-1 win over the Houston Astros on Saturday night. Sydney coach John Longmire has backed his inexperienced AFL ruckmen and revealed he may use a couple more youngsters to pinch hit while Callum Sinclair and Kurt Tippett are sidelined.Sinclair and Tippett will miss multiple matches for the third-placed Swans, leaving Sam Naismith, 24, (four senior games) and 21-year-old Toby Nankervis (eight), to shoulder the majority of the ruck work.Were really confident in what theyve been able to do, they are two young players that have shown promise, Longmire said on Thursday.Tippett has been out for five matches after undergoing hamstring tendon surgery and is on track to return in round 22.Sinclair is recovering from arthroscopic surgery on the right knee he injured against Carlton last weekend, but Longmire said he should be back before the end of the season.Naismith made just one senior appearance before this season but has played the last three games and racked up career-best numbers in virtually every major statistical category last weekend.Hes grown in confidence, his ruck stuff has been very important for us and particularly his centre bounce work, Longmire said.His ability last week to ruck against Matty Kreuzer was of a pretty high standard.Nankervis, who is expected to replace Sinclaair against Fremantle in Perth on Sunday, was one of the Swans best in their NEAFL team last week when the more experienced Tom Derickx didnt play.ddddddddddddWeve certainly got the option to try different options as well in regard to maybe (defender) Aliir Aliir (five senior games), (forward) Xavier Richards (three), Longmire said.Those guys we might look at in coming weeks.Aliir has done a bit of ruck work for us in the reserves and also as a junior.Hes got an enormous leap, we know hes really improved.Xavier has done a little bit, not a lot. Weve used Dean Towers in that role as well, so we feel as though weve got a few options.Longmire noted around half the Swans side to contest Sundays game would be different to the one that played the Dockers in a finals game in Perth just under a year ago.He said playing in Fremantle icon Matthew Pavlichs 350th AFL game was a fantastic opportunity for the Swans youngsters, many of whom have not played at the venue before.Longmire had no doubt Pavlich made the right decision to play on this year.Absolutely he should have, hes had a really good year, Longmire said.
