ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Henrik Zetterberg, Johan Franzen and Brad Stuart staked Detroit to a three-goal lead, and the Red Wings held on for a 4-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday night.

Stuart had two goals, including an empty-netter he banked in off the right boards from the Detroit zone with 48 seconds to play, and Pavel Datsyuk had two assists after breaking out of a 12-game goal drought with a pair against the Los Angeles Kings in a 4-1 win on Saturday.

Jimmy Howard made 32 saves, helping the Red Wings complete the Southern California sweep and earn a split of their four-game trip after five straight road losses.

Saku Koivu and Teemu Selanne scored for the Ducks, who have won only two of their last 15 games.
