Well, that's about how things are going for the Detroit Red Wings these days.
Defenseman Danny DeKeyser inadvertently deflected the puck past his own goaltender, giving the Florida Panthers the early 1-0 lead.
A centering pass attempt from Panthers captain Aleksander Barkov was whacked at by DeKeyser, but unfortunately right past a startled Thomas Greiss:

The Red Wings are currently mired in a frustrating four-game losing skid, and falling into penalty trouble and behind on the scoresheet early ins't the recipe for success.

Former Red Wings defenseman Aaron Ward reveals abuse at UM by Dr. Robert Anderson
Former Detroit Red Wings defenseman Aaron Ward came forward to reveal that he was a victim of the disgraced late Dr. Robert Anderson at the University of Michigan while a student athlete at the school.
Ward spent three years playing for the Wolverines from 1990 to 1993.
While speaking during an interview on TSN 690 in Montreal, Ward admitted the abuse he suffered contributed to a gambling problem he'd suffer later in life.
“When I was in college and I was 17 and 18, I was sexually abused by a doctor who was at the University of Michigan who’s currently publicly under investigation,” said Ward, later confirming Dr. Anderson's identity. “Listen, I was married 20 years and my ex-wife did not know that, not an ounce of that. But you come to a place of realizing that when you finally let go of these things and when you share with people, whether you deem them embarrassing, whether you can’t come to grips with the reality, if you take the chance and you verbalize it, you can quickly find out that people can either kind of relate to what you’re going through or they can just be there (for you).
“So as I admit that on radio, that I was sexually abused by a doctor in a professional environment at the University of Michigan and suppressed it forever, it is liberating as you drop these things from your conscience. I spent, since I was 17 years old when that happened, trying to figure out why I gambled since I was 17. That’s not the only reason, but it’s a contributing factor.”
