Thrilling Overtime Finish
In a thrilling overtime finish, Dylan Larkin netted his second goal of the night just 1:50 into extra play, leading the Detroit Red Wings to a narrow 2-1 victory against the Ottawa Senators on Thursday evening. The game saw standout performances, including goaltender John Gibson, who made 26 critical saves to secure the win for Detroit.
Game Highlights
The first goal of the match came from Senators’ captain Brady Tkachuk during the opening period, giving Ottawa an early edge. However, the Red Wings leveled the score early in the second period when Lucas Raymond assisted Larkin, who executed a quick one-timer past Ottawa goalie Linus Ullmark, who tallied 18 saves throughout the game.
Intense Moments
The intensity escalated shortly afterward when Simon Edvinsson of Detroit collided with Tkachuk, leading to a moment of chaos.
