Tomas Holmstrom added a goal and an assist for the Red Wings,who have won 14 of their last 15 meetings with the Kings -including seven of eight on the road.


"I've played with these guys (Holmstrom and Datsyuk) for awhile," Zetterberg said. "The key with us is consistency, wehave to bring strong effort every time. When we do, games likethis will happen more often."


It was the fifth straight loss for the Kings, who haven't wonsince their season opener against Anaheim on September 29 inLondon. Los Angeles has also been outscored, 26-12, duringtheir skid.


Detroit goaltender Chris Osgood, who was making the 600th startof his career, made 27 saves to win his second start of theseason.


"Tonight, Ozzy (Chris Osgood) kept us in the game in the firstperiod with some great saves," Detroit defenseman NicklasLidstrom said. "We were patient and then the opportunitiescame."


After a scoreless first period, Datsyuk scored 40 seconds intothe second. Zetterberg fired a shot from the point that wasstopped by Kings goaltender Jonathan Bernier, but Datsyuk pushedhome the rebound to give Detroit a 1-0 lead.


Detroit doubled its lead at 3:06 of the second when Kris Draperraced down the right side and made a move to his forehand,sliding the puck just inside the left post for a shorthandedgoal.

It was the sixth goal of the season for Cammalleri, who hasscored in five of the six games for the Kings.


The Red Wings regained their two-goal advantage with 14:21 leftwhen Holmstrom took a feed from Zetterberg and beat Bernier highto the glove side for his fifth goal of the season.

"We (the line of Holmstrom, Datsyuk and Zetterberg) have reallygood chemistry," Holmstrom said. "Those two create a lot ofspace for me with their speed. I've been getting the puck ingreat position through their efforts."


Less than two minutes later, Zetterberg scored his fourth of theseason to give Detroit a three-goal advantage.


"I thought we were better tonight but it felt like it was thesame story," Kings coach Marc Crawford said. "We made criticalmistakes at critical times of the game tonight. They are a goodteam and their top players were their best players tonight andwe made mistakes when they were on the ice."


Bernier, who allowed seven goals in a loss to Boston on Friday,made 26 saves on Sunday.


"It's not getting easier but I'm not down," Bernier said. "Ijust have to bring the same approach to the ice every night andmake sure my preparation is consistent."
