What Happened
Detroit erased a third deficit when Dylan Larkin scored with 1:17 remaining in the third period, his second goal of the season, sending the game to overtime after the Red Wings pulled their goalie. Lucas Raymond then delivered the shootout winner and had two assists in regulation in a 4-3 Detroit victory over Edmonton on Monday. Viktor Arvidsson and Emmitt Finnie also scored for the Red Wings, who finished their Northwestern road trip at 2-1-1.
Key Details
- Michal Postava made 25 saves and stopped three more in the shootout in his first NHL start.
- Tristan Jarry made 26 saves for Edmonton.
- Vasily Podkolzin, Isaac Howard and Colton Dach scored for the Oilers, who have lost two straight.
- Oilers forward Zach Hyman left with what looked to be a concussion.
- Connor McDavid has 34 points during a 12-game season-opening points streak.
- Detroit is 5-4-3; Edmonton is 8-2-2.
What It Means
The result gives Detroit a winning road trip and a second straight victory, with Postava earning a win in his first NHL start after appearing in relief against Vancouver last Thursday. Edmonton's two-game skid comes with concern over Hyman's condition, though McDavid's 12-game scoring streak continues to drive the Oilers' attack.
What's Next
Edmonton will monitor Hyman after he left with what looked to be a concussion, while Detroit returns home following a 2-1-1 road trip. No further schedule details were reported.
