Bruins edge Red Wings in playoff-type battle at LCA

[ASFN Admin]

The Boston Bruins rallied for a 4-2 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday night in front of another sellout crowd at Little Caesars Arena and a national TV audience on ABC.

The Red Wings were leading 2-1 early in the third period on goals by Lucas Raymond and Alex DeBrincat, but they allowed back-to-back goals by Elias Lindholm and Nikita Zadorov midway through the period.

Marat Khusnutdinov added an empty-net goal for the Bruins, who were outshot 43-26.
