ANAHEIM - The Detroit Red Wings' first appearance at the Pond since the first round of last season's playoffs lost some of its luster when Mighty Ducks

 Detroit star Sergei Fedorov Sergei Viktorovich Fedorov (Russian:Сергей Викторович Фёдоров, Sergey Viktorovich Fyodorov  was a late scratch.

 - easily at least half of the crowd - and watch Fedorov play against the team for which he starred for 13 seasons. But the Ducks, though missing their best player, had one of their better games in 2004. And they had every opportunity to win despite giving the high-powered Red Wings six power plays.

It wasn't until more than four minutes into the game that Fedorov was announced as a late scratch with the stomach flu. The low-scoring Ducks lost Fedorov's team-leading 16 goals and 31 points against the team that came into the game with a league-leading 154 goals.

Still, the Ducks started the third period trailing 2-1 having gotten better as the game wore on. Prospal tied the game with his second goal in three games after going 17 games without a goal.

 race. But it was looked at as a positive result against the Red Wings, who came into the game tied for the league lead with 61 points.

The Ducks outshot their opponent for the seventh straight game, a streak that includes only one win. They are 1-6-4 in the last 11 games and have scored more than two goals only twice in the last 19 games.

The Ducks may have caught Detroit at the right time. The Red Wings were just 1-2-1-1 in their previous five games.

But the Ducks gave Detroit's seventh-ranked power play plenty of opportunities, and the Red Wings took advantage. The Ducks actually had a shorthanded chance on Detroit's first power play of the period, and held Detroit without a shot on their third advantage.

But Tomas Holmstrom scored one second after the end of Detroit's fourth power play of the game, and second of the period, for a 2-0 lead with 9:20 left in the second period.

The Ducks controlled the final minute of the period and Petr Sykora cut Detroit's lead to one with his 14th goal of the season with 12 seconds left. Samuel Pahlsson beat Detroit goalie Manny Manny may refer to:
