DETROIT (AP) - It was a happy homecoming for Dave Lewis and Tim Thomas.
Marco Sturm had two goals and an assist to lift the Boston Bruins to a 6-3 win over the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday.
Lewis was a Red Wing employee for 20 years, as a player, assistant coach, associate coach, head coach and pro scout, from 1986 until he became the Bruins' coach last summer. Thomas is a native of Davison, Mich., which is about 100 kilometres north of Detroit. Lewis downplayed winning in his return.
"For me, it's two points," he said. "All I have a great memories of this team, this organization, these fans.
"Just to come back, I knew how to get into the visitors locker room, but I hadn't been in there in a long time."
