from Ted Kulfan of the Detroit News,
The potential for a great story, one of the few of this miserable Red Wings’ season, was there.
Filip Zadina, the prized Red Wings’ rookie, scored his first NHL goal late Tuesday against Colorado, giving his team the lead.
But instead of that exciting ending, it turned into another heartbreaking one.
Colorado tied it 42 seconds after Zadina scored, then star Avalanche forward Nathan MacKinnon scored at 2 minutes, 29 seconds of overtime, giving the Avalanche a 4-3 victory.
Instead of a storybook ending, it was another gut punch for the Wings, a young team that’s forgotten how to win.
Below, watch the Zedina goal, post-game interviews and game highlights.
