Malkin - back after missing a game because of a ­non-COVID-19 illness - scored during a power play at 1:48 of the second period to make it 3-0. Carter finished a shorthanded two-on-one with Blueger at 3:18 to push it to 4-0 and chase Nedeljkovic.

On another power play, Rust one-timed a feed from Crosby at 5:57 for a 5-0 lead.

Malkin scored a highlight goal, weaving past Detroit's Sam Gagner and Adam Erne and scoring from the left hash marks to make it 6-0.

During a two-man advantage, Larkin scored the Red Wings' first goal, at 11:37, and Vrana made it 6-2 at 18:04.

Crosby closed the second-period scoring on a back-door play from Evan Rodrigues with 38.6 seconds left for a 7-2 lead. Heinen added another power-play goal, at 2:06 of the third.

After Pickard left, Malkin completed his hat trick at 5:51 of the third to make it 9-2.
