Zacha’s decisive shot was a one-timer from a pass delivered by David Pastrnak, which found its way past goaltender Ville Husso. The Bruins also had goals from Justin Brazeau and Nikita Zadorov, while goalie Joonas Korpisalo made 25 saves throughout the contest.
For the Red Wings, Lucas Raymond made a significant impact by scoring both of their goals and surpassing the 200-point milestone in his career. Simon Edvinsson contributed with two assists, and Ville Husso faced 35 shots, stopping 32 as Detroit fell to their third consecutive loss.
In an eventful second period, the Red Wings had a potential go-ahead goal overturned after video review but regained the lead in the third. Raymond scored his first goal after the puck deflected off Bruins’ defenseman Charlie McAvoy, then quickly followed up with a wrist shot just a minute and 19 seconds into the third period, putting Detroit up 2-1.
Boston found a way to equalize when Brazeau scored a deflected shot mid-way through the third, marking their first power-play goal of the game following a penalty to Ben Chiarot for interference.
