The point clinched a playoff spot for the Red Wings, but Howard's performance leaves coach Mike Babcock unsure of who he'll put in net when the playoff start next week.
"I'm going to go have a beer and think about that," Babcock said.
Tomas Plekanec tied the game at 3-3 at 11:39 of the third period during a five-on-three power play with a shot from a sharp angle that slipped through Howard's five-home.
Lars Eller scored at 1:31 of overtime on a harmless-looking shot from the wing that somehow eluded Howard.
"They can't go in. Period," Babcock said. "This is the National Hockey League. They can't go in."...
Babcock said his team should have won the game.
"The puck went in, it shouldn't have went in," Babcock said. "We're going to have to deal with that in the next few days to get that straightened out. But I thought our team played real hard."
