Pavel Datsyuk scored two goals and set up another as the Detroit Red Wings rolled to a 5-2 victory over the Nashville Predators on Saturday.

Defenseman Brad Stuart, Tomas Holmstrom and Patrick Eaves also scored while blue-liners Nicklas Lidstrom and Ruslan Salei each notched two assists for the Red Wings, who concluded a 3-1 homestand and improved to 25-4-7 all-time against the Predators at Joe Louis Arena.

Datsyuk, who has a five-game points streak, opened the scoring at 12:11 of the first period and scored his sixth goal of the season with 78 seconds remaining in the second to give Detroit a 3-1 advantage. The three-time Selke Trophy winner also helped set up Holmstrom's power-play tally early in the third that created a three-goal bulge.

Henrik Zetterberg also extended his points streak to five games with an assist and Chris Osgood made 23 saves in posting his 398th career win and improving to 19-9-4 lifetime against Nashville.

Joel Ward and defenseman Kevin Klein scored while Pekka Rinne stopped 23 shots for the Predators, who began a five-game road trip with their first loss away from home this season (3-1).
