However, Detroit's fortunes changed when Alexander Romanov's broken stick set Berggren free on a two-on-one, where the young Swede looked off Vladimir Tarasenko then wired a shot over Sorokin's blocker. Then, in the final minute of regulation, Raymond took a spectacular feed from Dylan Larkin along the wall and fired the winning shot over Sorokin's glove. "Both those goals, those finishes, a lot of credit, because Sorokin looked like the top goalie in the league. He just had that look to him," said coach Derek Lalonde after the game. "I thought it would take an ugly one or a good bounce, but it didn't. We had two good finishes." For a Red Wing team struggling to score goals, the two breakouts came at the right time. It took Berggren 15 games to find his first goal this season, but now he has three in his last five. Meanwhile, Raymond leads Detroit in scoring, but that came almost entirely from assists, with just two goals entering last night's action. It's just one night and two goals, but the Red Wings will look to build on the confidence boost of the twin snipes on one of the league's best goaltenders.
