Both goalies, Nedeljkovic and Elliott were fantastic all day long.
Detroit scored midway in the third period to make it 1-0 but Tama scored seven minutes later to tie the score and force overtime.
Tampa scores in OT to win 2-1.
Detroit played well but went 0/5 on the power play while Tampa was 2/3 Detroit was real bad in the faceoff circle, only winning 36% of them.
Detroit goal and a Ned highlight below.
Back at it tomorrow at 5pm in Pittsburgh.

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
