Andrew Copp scored at 3:27 of overtime, lifting the Detroit Red Wings to a 4-3 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Monday night.<\/p>\n
Alex DeBrincat, who scored and had two assists, set up Copp for the game-winning goal by passing him the puck in front of the net.<\/p>\n
John Gibson had 31 saves for the Atlantic Division-leading Red Wings, who have won four straight games to pull into a tie atop the Eastern Conference with the Metropolitan-leading Hurricanes.<\/p>\n
Detroit started the third with a 3-0 lead and gave up three goals as Carolina tied it.<\/p>\n
Frederik Andersen stopped 14 shots for the Hurricanes, who evened it with Jackson Blake’s score, Seth Jarvis short-handed goal and Shayne Gostisbehere’s goal on a power play with 3:01 left in the third.<\/p>\n
Little Caesars Arena was buzzing with excitement for the game because Hockey Hall of Famer Sergei Fedorov had his No. 91 jersey retired and the Red Wings kept fans in a good mood for most of the night.<\/p>\n
James Van Riemsdyk took advantage of time and space to score on a rebound in front of the net on a power play, scoring on Detroit’s second shot of the game at 1:32.<\/p>\n
DeBrincat gave the Red Wings a two-score lead early in the second period with his team-high 24th goal and a few minutes later, he and Patrick Kane assisted on Albert Johansson’s goal that made it 3-0. <\/p>\n
The cushion wasn’t comfortable.<\/p>\n
Detroit blocked 17 shots through two periods, preventing almost half of Carolina’s shots from getting to Gibson in the first 40 minutes of the game.<\/p>\n
The Hurricanes, who won 5-2 in the previous matchup, will host Detroit on Feb. 28 in the final game of their regular season series.<\/p>\n
Carolina visits St. Louis on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Detroit visits Boston on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
