Dylan Larkin scored his second goal of the game at 1:50 of overtime and the visiting Detroit Red Wings beat the Ottawa Senators 2-1 on Thursday.
Larkin, an Olympic gold medalist for Team USA, started the winning rush with a pass to Lucas Raymond at center ice. Larkin then got behind Ottawa's Shane Pinto, took the return pass, deked and slid a backhand shot between the pads of Linus Ullmark for his 28th goal of the season.
Each team was playing its first game following the break for the Milan-Cortina Olympics and looking to get off to a fast start in the final sprint for a spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
John Gibson made 26 saves for the Red Wings, who had lost four of five (1-3-1) before the break. Raymond had two assists.
Gold medalist Brady Tkachuk scored for the Senators, who had won five of six before the break. Ullmark made 18 saves.
The Red Wings have won the first three meetings of the season, including two in overtime.
Tkachuk gave the Senators a 1-0 lead with a power-play goal at 18:44 of the first period. Jake Sanderson's point shot deflected off the skate of Detroit's Michael Rasmussen to Tkachuk, who scored on a wrist shot from the high slot.
Larkin answered with a power-play goal at 5:24 of the second period. Raymond skated along the goal line and slid a back-hand pass to Larkin, who one-timed it past Ullmark from the bottom of the left circle.
Gibson maintained the tie early in the third period when a shot by Pinto got behind him but he knocked the puck away with his left skate before it crossed the goal line.
Pinto had a good opportunity on the rush in the final seconds of regulation, but Gibson made a blocker save.
