DETROIT -- Jason Spezza and Bobby Ryan most exemplified the Ottawa Senators transition from the Daniel Alfredsson era. Spezza was tasked with taking over for Alfredsson as captain, and Ryan with filling the void as a scoring winger. In the Senators first game against Alfredsson and the Detroit Red Wings, Spezza and Ryan fittingly spearheaded an impressive offensive display in a 6-1 blowout at Joe Louis Arena. Those performances made it easier to forget about Alfredsson. "Bobby Ryan gets two and Jason gets two, and I thought Erik Karlsson was a force in the game, as well," coach Paul MacLean said. "We played the game tonight and we end up winning it, a big win for us on the road. It had little to do with Daniel." Defenceman Chris Phillips called it "just another game," but there was no denying the added significance of facing the former face of the franchise. Its impossible to fill the Alfredsson void completely, but leave it up to Spezza and Ryan to try. Spezza, who made it clear he understood fans paying closer attention to this game, was rolling offensively. He scored his first goal on the power play by shooting through a triple screen and the legs of Detroit defenceman Brian Lashoff, and later on banked the puck off the glass and corralled it to get his second. "I felt good tonight," said Spezza, who has seven goals and three assists in 10 games. "I thought I moved well, and when I move well usually I play well." It was the eighth regular-season game that Spezza served as captain. Understandably this was the biggest because it came against the man who wore the "C" on his chest for 14 seasons, and Spezza shined in that spotlight. "I think its good to play well in a big game," he said. "I think that taking over the captaincy is just all about learning every day for me and learning how to become a good captain in this league. I was trying to learn under Alfie when he was here, and its always something that I wanted. Now that I have the C, its a matter of trying to learn through different situations and be consistent." As a team, it was the Senators most consistent, complete effort of the season. Mika Zibanejad made an early impact in his first game of the season with an assist on Eric Grybas goal, and Anderson made 31 saves on 32 shots. But someone had to put the puck in the net, and Ryan makes a habit of doing that better than anyone else on the roster. The four-time 30-goal scorer put up his fifth and sixth of the season against Detroit, chasing goaltender Jimmy Howard in the first period and beating Jonas Gustavsson in the third. The Senators softened the blow of Alfredsson signing in Detroit by acquiring Ryan in a trade with the Anaheim Ducks the same day. Ryan knows the comparison will continue to be made, but hes not the one doing it. "I think were two completely different players -- hes leaving at a part of his career where hes winding down and Im kind of entering that area where you start to figure yourself out as a player," Ryan said. "Were completely different dynamics, I think." Although they werent traded for each other like Phil Kessel and Tyler Seguin -- more accurately the draft pick that the Boston Bruins used to take him -- Ryan and Alfredsson are offensive-minded right-wingers, so the connection isnt going to stop. "Its a natural, its an easy comparison for you guys, I understand it," Ryan said. "But nobodys going to do what he did there." Alfredsson spent a lot of time this week addressing what he did in Ottawa, his departure after 17 seasons with the Senators and his fit with the Red Wings. No longer the spokesman for a team, the 40-year-old spoke for himself after a game in which he was generally a non-factor, finishing with two shots and two penalty minutes in 16 minutes 12 seconds of ice time. "It was obviously a different game today, the way it turned out," Alfredsson said. "It didnt feel too crazy. Warm-up was what it was. Once the game going, youre really into it. It was unfortunate the game it was it didnt really turn into a good battle, which I expected." Instead, Alfredsson and the Red Wings were left to lament their third straight loss in which he said the team looked slow. Coach Mike Babcock said his team didnt look very good but didnt know if that was a product of distraction. "Ive got no idea," he said. "Were not going to know the answer to that anyway. We can all speculate. The bottom line is we were no good here today. Its not like I saw it coming, its not like I think our play is falling off or anything. I was surprised to say the least. Disappointed for Alfie that we couldnt have done a better job." By comparison, the Senators did about as good a job as they could have, building off a strong performance in a loss to the Edmonton Oilers and getting rewarded for it. "I think we finally played a full, 60-minute game," Ryan said. "Weve seemed to put parts of it together in the past and gotten away from it, and tonight we didnt. Even when we got up a few, we kept the pedal down, and that was important." It was important for the Senators to put forth a good effort in an Atlantic Division game, even this early in the season. They were smiling much more about that than beating Alfredsson. "To beat the elite teams can give you confidence as a group," Spezza said. "We feel Detroits one of the best teams in our division and to beat them, hopefully we can use this as a bit of springboard to play better hockey."

The three-time Pro Bowl selection was cut by Oakland in the preseason after having off-season surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. The Jets had shown interest in Cribbs during the last several months, working him out twice before signing him Tuesday. Cribbs, 30, is tied with New Englands Leon Washington for the most kickoff-return touchdowns in NFL history with eight, and has returned three punts for scores. He spent his first eight NFL seasons with Cleveland. New York also signed wide receiver Greg Salas from Philadelphias practice squad, and placed wide receiver Clyde Gates and running back Mike Goodson on season-ending injured reserve. The Jets also signed former Stony Brook running back Miguel Maysonet to the practice squad. Cribbs could help offset the losses of both Gates and Goodson. He has 107 career receptions for 1,161 yards and seven touchdowns, and has experience running the wildcat formation -- one of Goodsons roles with the Jets -- with 753 yards rushing and two scores. The versatile Cribbs is also 4 of 12 passing in his career. The signing of Cribbs is a low-risk, high-reward move -- especially if he can regain the form that made him one of the leagues most dangerous players who could score from any spot on the field. Gates injured his left shoulder Sunday in the Jets loss to the Pittsburgh Steelerss, but had expressed optimism Monday that he would be able to play this Sunday against New England.dddddddddddd He hadnt yet received the result from an MRI exam, though, and it apparently revealed the injury to be more serious than first thought. Gates finished with 12 catches for 122 yards this season, and averaged 23.2 yards as the Jets primary kick returner. Goodson, a potential replacement for Gates on kickoffs, was also lost for the season Sunday when he tore the anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his left knee. He was hurt while trying to make a tackle on Lawrence Timmons game-sealing interception of Geno Smith in the fourth quarter. New Yorks offence was already without top receiver Santonio Holmes, who is nursing a hamstring injury, and tight end Kellen Winslow Jr., who was suspended four games by the NFL for violating the leagues policy on performance-enhancing drugs. With the losses of Gates and Goodson for the season, the Jets were seriously short-handed on offence. Salas was a fourth-round pick of St. Louis out of Hawaii in 2011, and had 27 catches for 264 yards as a rookie. He was traded to New England before last season, but was later claimed off waivers by Philadelphia. Salas had yet to play this season for the Eagles. Maysonet went undrafted after running for 1,964 yards and 21 touchdowns during his senior season. He was signed in April by Philadelphia, and also spent time with Cleveland, Indianapolis and San Diego this season.
