BOX SCORE
DETROIT (AP) – Sergei Fedorov's second goal of the game, scored
with 2:09 left in overtime, gave the Detroit Red Wings a
come-from-behind 4-3 victory Wednesday night over the Carolina
Hurricanes.
Kirk Maltby's goal at 4:43 of the second period completed
Detroit's comeback from a 3-0 deficit.
|  | | Chris Osgood made 38 saves in Detroit's overtime win vs. the Hurricanes. |
Fedorov's game-winner came on a power play after the Hurricanes
were caught with too many men on the ice 1:53 into overtime.
Fedorov, who also had an assist, scored on a slap shot from the
right circle.
Glen Wesley had a goal and two assists and Rod Brind'Amour added
three assists for Carolina.
Carolina led 3-0 a little past the midway point of the second
period after power-play goals by defensemen Wesley and Kevin
Hatcher.
Wesley's goal came just 1:49 into the second with Nicklas
Lidstrom still serving a hooking penalty he received with 5.8
seconds left in the first period.
Wesley's slap shot just inside the blue line beat Red Wings
goalie Chris Osgood low on the short side after it dipped.
After the Red Wings were caught with too many men on the ice,
Hatcher tipped Wesley's screened back-hander from the top of the
right circle past Osgood.
But the Red Wings scored twice in a span of 2:13 to take a 3-2
lead into the third period.
Fedorov got his 26th goal of the season when he tipped in a pass
from Brendan Shanahan at 13:21 and Detroit got a power-play goal at
15:35 when Martin Lapointe put in a loose puck in the crease.
The Hurricanes took a 1-0 advantage late in the first period
with a power-play goal. With Todd Gill off for interference, Bates
Battaglia poked a rebound over Osgood with just 50 seconds left in
the period.
